What Diffuser/Rear Under Spolier Do You Want on My 8?





So I'm running a Tsunami nose and Autobahn sideskirts which I love. Racing Beat wing also. Looking for a new rear diffuser/underspoiler to complete the package. My autobody shop doesn't recommend removing the crunch bar which most full bumpers require and I'm too old also to take the risk.

So since I'm going with a diffuser. Any suggestions to complete my look? Mazdaspeed? Veilside? RMagic? Repros fine too...

IIRC there aren't too many options. I remember seeing an aftermarket one by Re-Amemiya that was ok looking. There's always the ms one too but that's all i can remember off-hand.

It's tough now that i think about it - there aren't too many options because our mufflers sit so low. Wish i could help more tho - i was really interested in looking for actual, functional diffusers and not like side add-on's a while ago but couldn't find one aside from ms and the proto re-amemiya.

Pretty sure the bumpers can be made to work with the bar still in there.

japanparts.com is having a sell now as well so you can save 10% I believe you can order r-magic parts painted as well...

just outta curiousity but looking at the rmagic rear - it seems that the exhaust shroud area is kinda limiting the size of the exhaust tips doesn't it? What's the largest size exhaust tip you can have w/that rear? (man, if i didn't put the word 'exhaust' in there the entire sentence would've changed lol)

i dunno about the r-magic rear for you. its pretty curvacious and your front and sides arent really rounded at all. i love the tsunami because of how jagged and aggressive it is and that rear just doesnt look like a match to me. maybe it will when its on the car

With the flow of your car, I would go with the INGs. Your front bumper is aggressive, so the INGs rear would be perfect.
