curious about the front diffuser where does it 'exhaust' to? out the sides?

BEC so exhaust at side well out of way.

to be fair would be easier if i could get someone to fit them depending where when and cost of course

mortsi - 12/9/14 at 07:15 PM

when holding the rear one up it touches the bottom of the suspension arms does yours?

not intended, it is a legitimate thing, but pretty rare even on race cars!
I was a bit surprised to see it brought up considering the average kit car isn't particularly aerodynamically biased

oh well...

Have a look at this thread:

Surely SA will tell you how to fit them?
