Default Tom's Rear Diffuser Installed

UPS delivered it yesterday. Here is a picture of it taken from my phone. Now, all I need are my wheels then I'm done.

Looks great! It's my favorite diffuser for the F.

Oh, BTW, there's never such a thing as "done"

Love the Tom's, just called this evening on mine and luckily it didn't get delayed with all the bad things happening in Japan.

Wald's rear to so 'thick.' It sticks out too much. I also didn't like the reflectors on it.

LOL, I hate to agree with you, but you are right.

Is that painted or what material is it?

The matte finish from the picture does not match your glossy L-badge. I would get it painted gloss black if that was the case.

Looks great! Wald front and TOMS rear go good together.

The TOMS' rear diffuser is carbon as is the rest of the kit for the IS F.

To the OP it looks good, welcome to the TOM's club

Looking good John! Trust me, you won't stop at the wheels. You'll think of something else!

Yup, like N54MPower said, it's carbon fiber. It matches the carbon fiber accents on my Wald front kit. I know it's hard to tell, but the rear badge is painted satin black. Just like my front grill and badge.

Wow that looks great on USB. I was wondering how it would look on USB for a while. Now I can't decide between painting the middle and getting the s4play diffuser or getting the toms rear diffuser.

Definitely in for some more pics too.

Love the Tom's rear diffuser, but for some reason it doesn't match the Wald front for me. The front Wald kit screams 'GRRRR look at me, I'm all agressive and stuff' and the back with the Tom's rear is just like 'squeek, I'm subdued'.

Looks great. I wonder how it looks with the Eurotek bottom diffuser on.
