I think it'd look weird. Original intent of buying the FK diffuser (which I've yet to install on this TT) was to square up the rear of the car a little bit. A little too rounded under, and I think cleaning that piece off the car would only make it worse. (my opinion anyway)

Some sort of diffuser to replace that panel would look sweet though. Doesnt have to be like the 'reverse spoiler' like I have, just something to fill in that spot.



Inspiration sorta... just not so god-awful tacky

heh, yeah, i didn't really think about that.

I mention that I have a diffuser, and most people dont get it. I have to say it looks like a spoiler, but its stuck on the underside of the car.

I'll get a pic....

you guys missed out on those. there was a thread in the for sale forum a couple years ago. the guy had a bunch of those diffusers, $25 plus shipping. Just wanted them out of his garage. Stolen or not, who cares. Car looked good.

anyway, im showing my forum age, and now i feel old. ha. I'm the TT forum 'old man' that rambles off about obscure **** that nobody was around for or cares about. so sad.
