which diffusers did you get, WASP Composites? think i saw you reply in their FS thread. just got their Ap2 lip protector/splitter. haven't installed it yet tho.
Yup, got the WASPcomposites. I haven't recieved the CR lip protector yet, but the side diffusers look great!
looks pretty good. is that their v1 or v2? you don't really need to actually drill the mounting holes... just use self-tapping screws, right? still on the fence about whether i want to do that, but with i don't look my ride will look right w/just the front lip protector.

i've been toying w/the idea of chroming or polishing my wheels. guess these pics are gonna save me some $$$. your ride is hella clean, but mine would look real similar, esp once I head down to LA and get my hardtop.

yeah, but i don't have a real issue w/just screwing in the side diffusers. drilling holes is a whole diff story.

Uh...holes are made. The screws don't go in by themselves, lol. I just use small drill bits to makes holes the same size as the screws they gave me, then just simply screw it in.

dude, i know what self-tapping screws are. lol


EDIT: you shouldn't really have to pre-drill. just use a centerpunch or something to make an indent/guide.

i don't like drilling unnecessary holes in my cars. i drove my friend crazy when he installed my alarm & stereo cuz i told him to not to drill unless absolutely necessary. fortunately, he was able to use mostly OEM existing mounting holes and grommets for everything.

pre drilling slightly smaller hole before self tap screw makes it a lot easier

Yes and less chance of the screw snapping/breaking
