Does the RKP diffuser extend beyond the bumper?

Looking at this picture from IND it looks like I this nicely tucked in under the bumper. The one I received sticks out half a inch. Is this how it supposed to fit? Itbisnoushednin as far as it will go.

Here is how lie looks in comparison. It sticks out quite a bit. It is pushed in as much as it will go and the holes line up.

Its just the angle. The first photo you posted is a bottom view which makes the diffuser look like its even with the bumper cover. It was designed to stick out further on the than the cover.

Yea it sticks out a bit. Lovely diffuser.

I was wondering the other day if this would fit with the side extenders mode carbon has. That would be a great and unique combo I think.

Yes it looks good. As for the extenders IMO that is a bit too much and looks like a body kit. I didn't like that at all. looks overdone.
