S4Play Diffuser
#6
I'm also concerned about just using only the small self tapping screws to have it installed as I do drive quite fast on frequent occasion... (will hopefully be doing the Texas Mile this or next year and will be topping out the car's top speed) and don't want the thing flying off.... So.. .I bought SS #6 (i think) bolts/washers and locking nylon nuts to install so it would be less likely to rip off. I'm also thinking about using heavy duty velcro along the entire outside contact edge to keep air from catching in between the diffuser and the bumper.... Is this all nuts?

@ ERDoc74 - I've had two of them and the first one had a much better finish quality than the 2nd one. The 2nd one was as you described, pretty rough around the edges. I sanded the wavy edges down and then painted it Obsidain to match my car...voilla, came out pretty nice.
I used the supplied screws with the first one I bought and it did end up flying off on the road after about 6 months. So with the 2nd one, I used oversized screws and washers, along with Loctite. This time I'll be keeping a much closer eye on them to see if any are backing out/loosening up.

Also good to know that my thinking wasn't too crazy about the little screws maybe not being adequate and that the diffuser could come off if not more securely attatched! I'll definiely be going with my bolt/washer/nut harware (and velcro) FOR SURE now.. THANKS!!!

If you guys have questions you can always PM me and I'll be happy to help!
Or if you are local in Norcal, we can help you with the install
The screws are self-tapping screws but for the IS-F you want to remove the plastic piece that is directly under the exhaust tips. There are two 10mm bolts, you will remove 2 bolts, slide off the plastic piece, then re-install the one 10mm bolt that holes the exhaust tips in place. This will give you the clearance to install the diffuser.
Again any questions just email me!
