I'm currently working on this but got side tracked with making a rear diffuser that should be completed end of next week (for SEMA).

Here is 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.

I literally have the Turner option sitting in my cart right now & checked this thread for updates before checking out.

There's already snow on the ground here & I need one installed before all the ice/rocks & hidden winter debris is all over the roads.

Anything to share? ETA? Estimated price? Prototype pics?

Interested.... and Im in SoCal too!

Alvinized52 · 11-05-2018, 09:58 PM

Bumping..... Just curious of any updates on any of newer guards available discussed in this thread.

hooligan317 · 11-05-2018, 11:27 PM

A little concerned about some of the comments regarding the Fall Line offering reducing ground clearance. Does anyone have this installed that can comment? I'm sitting fairly low (KW HAS) and don't want to introduce any unintended consequences.

jacobe92 · 11-06-2018, 02:21 PM

I'm also interested in a skid plate to protect the oil cooler.

joegie · 11-10-2018, 04:57 PM

bump, lowering my car soon would like some protection.

cliverman · 12-12-2018, 06:02 AM

What do you guys think of this?

Alan l. · 12-12-2018, 08:32 AM

^^ not sure what that protects but its def. not for the oil cooler that is infront of it.

It looks more like its for aero.

I've had my Turner oilcooler skid plate for a few months now and its still holding solid when i had the car on the lift last weekend. Oil cooler still looks new. I def. feel way more at ease with it installed especially if there is snow/ice on the ground.

I'm guessing that's something that already comes with the car and is a direct replacement? No effect on the radiator protection itself.

Thanks. Good point. Hopping on the Turner as well.

danchee · 12-21-2018, 07:03 PM

The Turner was easy to install. I bought new mounting screws (just in case as it's only $10) to go with mine. Very straight forward to remove the screws and pull off the OEM plastic and install the Turner. All the holes line up and no extra clearance. Right now Pelican Parts has 15% off all Turner products, so you should check if they have it in stock for order. Use code "TURN15".
