Bugeye Diffuser
As it says, but not the HT Autos ones - I'm after a Varis style rear diffuser preferably in black but if the price is right I would consider carbon.
This is the style, happy to take a universal or one designed for other cars as long as it hasn't been drilled to death to fit
Also after the HT Auto style rear corner splitters...

Let me know what you've got

I've fitted the OEM hawkeye sti diffuser.....but to fit a bugeye you also upgrade the ARB to a cusco one with the diffuser mounting points and brackets ;0) 1 mod led to another happy handling so not just looks......
#14
Fitting kit? Where from? I bought the OEM diffuser and they don't fit unless you have the Cusco ARB a mate of mine has bought the diffuser and was waiting on me fitting the ARB before he goes out and gets the same.....so if you can just get a fitting kit pass the details on mate I will give him a shout ;0)

Nope it's not a replacement. It wouldn't be very good if it was, it's narrower than the standard ARB.
Possibly helps stiffen the rear end up a little, and looks nice when new.
Looks tatty as hell after a couple of months though.

Yeh it got delivered today like you said looks good new.....might be worth getting it powder coated first, ive also got a prodrive diff guard am going to get brackets made for to drop it slightly as it looks like the diffuser will hide it once fitted

K mate, thought you were after carbon fiber only as I know you couldnt get a carbon fiber one for half the price as mine, if your after just an FRP style diffuser I can have a look for you?

I was watching a CF one on the Bay last week for £160, same people who make the FRP one I am considering - ideally I'm after a second-hand one as I need a new gearbox and love a bargain
#27
Dont we all Yeah i dont usually match eBay carbon prices, not convinced on some of the quality they sell tell you what thought, have a look on my site carbonfinish.co.uk as I have a few designs tell me the one your after and i can get you a FRP price

The type A diffuser is about the closest you do to the style shown in the first post. The dilemma is that your diffusers are aimed at the V8/9 rear bumpers and mine is a V7 which is different - I'd be loathed to pay money when I don't know how much adaptation would be needed whereas the universal varis one is quite a straight-forward fit

Been keeping an eyeout for some form of 2nd hadn diffuser for mine as I am gunna have to cut the **** out of it lol to fit my v8 saloon wagon hybrid we are making lol
