*Unreleased* Rexpeed CF Rear Diffuser
Let me just say, this is one of my favorite pieces on my car. This diffuser is gorgeous, a carbon fiber master piece. According to Derek from Rexpeed this diffuser will make it into production. I'm stoked I got my hands on it first, I was frothing when it was delivered. Thanks Derek for the hook-up.
The fitment was excellent, another trademark of Rexpeed. I did need to slightly trim one side of the diffuser so it would clear my exhaust, very minor. This will definitely vary depending on which exhaust your running. This diffuser comes in two separate pieces and includes the nuts, bolts, washers, and 2 support rods (very important). The install was pretty easy. I was able to do it by myself, just took a couple of hours to make sure I had everything aligned and tightened. As you can see with the pictures, the diffuser is pretty flush with my bumper once all the bolts are tightened down. No double sided tape was used. I also included pictures of the two spots I bolted up the adjustable support rods.
As this is an unreleased Rexpeed item, I'm not sure when it will be released or how much it will cost. I'm sure you all know that Derek will give you a great deal for this carbon fiber beauty. Please send your questions to Derek at Rexpeed. I can help answer fitment or general questions about the diffuser. Enjoy the pics and its ok to be a little jealous, I know I would be if someone else had this.

Very nice! I assume very little parachuting effect with this piece? At least no more than stock already provides. 
Can you get a pic of the rear of your car but at a higher angle and further back, like what it would look like if driving behind the car? Thanks for sharing this great piece!

Thanks OP. That first pic up a little higher is basically what I wanted to see. Looks good!
I guess a exhaust shield wouldn't fit too well with this on though. That might look pretty nice if they made the rexpeed exhaust shield piece fit with this new piece.

What would be cool is.... companies not just ripping off others designs. This is clearly an APR diffuser knock-off. Molded directly from a genuine APR part.
I think it is lame.
Go buy an APR part and keep the companies that develop parts in business.
