im interested. but how would that work, people come in from time to time? I wouldn't want the shop to rush multiple customers and not do it correctly.

We would basically have a car meet there for a few hours. We arrive, get our cars done first come first served, and then can hang out afterwards or people can leave when they're done. It wouldn't be rushed, it would be a booked day of work for them.

If you guys are in norcal and want a group buy for an installer to do the CF wrap and buying the diffuser at the same time, I'm sure I can set one up with our vendor!

PM me

Extremely nice! What was the total cost for parts and installation?

I had the same thought. Part of me thinks it wouldn't be worth it as it wouldn't be very noticeable. I do think the s4play diffuser would look good.

The diffuser may seem like a small thing, but without it my car definitely lacks "something". I think the wrap + diffuser is the way to go.

And after a few days driving my car with my own crappy install job...I actually really love it. I always did but figured the install quality would make me take it off. For now I think it's gonna be permanent until I can do it right (or go Toms/Wald if my wife stops spending my money ).
