Custom Racing Rear Diffuser

Here's a sneak peak of the rear diffuser (it will be powder coated black next week). My goal was function first and looks second.

It's extremely aggressive (that's what I wanted) and not for everyone!

The car will be at SEMA at the TORCO Oils booth if anyone wants to check it out.

A lot of R&D went into the design and manufacturing and I will be track testing it in November. Our goal was to make a functioning rear diffuser that you can change out the fins depending on your racing application.

Does it have to be in aluminum? You're saying too much R&D went into production of it, would it change its effectiveness if going with FRP or CF?

Surely a full flat floor would make more sense with this?
