RKP diffuser

finally had it installed, fitment wasn't 100% and you'd need a longer 8mm hex screw.

Are you sure you didn't get two screws in your order. At the bottom of the box.

Looks good

Idk if the fins are too long or the exhaust tips aren't large enough, but it doesn't really flow well with the bumper. It appears larger than it should be if that makes sense. The last shot from the side illustrates what I'm on about.

I do think if my exhaust tips can sit flush with the diffuser it'd look a lot better, unfortunately the tips are extended as far out as possible already.

Interesting.

When I installed mine I re-used the OE body screws with no issues. However, the box I received also came with two new screws that I only found out about after I installed my diffuser.

Strange. Looks good none the less.
