Nice man im in moanalua area. My Works took over 6mo to come in. It wasnt because of shipping but the manufacturing process of 5x100 at the factory was ultra slow. So just a heads up if yours take longer than expected lol. That diffuser makes the rear end look so much cleaner. I cant stand the stock look... it looks like the car's butt is hanging out lol.
I'll post some pics of my car later when i get home from work

Yeah my shop was mentioning about a manufacturing delay for the wheels. That's probably why.

The diffuser definitely improves the look of the rear end, especially after I put on the exhaust. My exhaust didn't look right prior to putting on the diffuser.

I'll be looking forward to seeing what you got!

Sorry for low quality pictures. The quality and lighting changes when I transfer them from my phone to my pc.. But my car ain't anything special anyway lol
My current setup:
Megan Coilovers
Megan rear camber arms / cam bolts in front
Work CR2P (19"x9.5" +16 rears; 19"x9.5" +45 fronts; 215/35r/19 Kumho tires)
12" Alpine type R powered by a Pioneer GMD8601

NIce ride. Got any pictures of 12" Alpine type R powered by a Pioneer GMD8601.. I tried looking for the subwoofer on the left driver side (rear) but all I found was a strut bolt? off the black cap thats in plain sight. Then I lifted that carpet and lifted that left panel , but it's just an empty space?.

@Miamiboy87 Ok so you don't have the stock subwoofer which is weird because I thought all the models came with one. That sucks because if the wires aren't pre-ran by factory then you'll have to pull out your head unit and see if there are subwoofer outputs. If there aren't any sub outputs then you gotta change the head unit.
Don't mind my ugly install lol (did it in 30min). I'm working on a custom box to replace the spare wheel area so I can get my trunk space back lol.

I'll take some pics of my trunk and do it "step by step" and maybe you can point out what i'm missing lol

I will be following this mod because I want a sub too and my car doesn't even have a stock sub either. the Sub was only part of the "premium audio package." We also have a filler plate in the middle of our dashboard where a speaker grill is supposed to go.

Miamiboy87

this is what my trunk looks like. I don't think there's a sub..
After taking that black part off

Miamiboy87, You don't have a sub, The CT's with subs have them behind the driver side rear wheel well like this:

OEM Subwoofer

Miamiboy87

so all I have is empty space in that container!? More work to put a sub now..

SteveMason

Not necessarily...
If I build one, it will be similar to this one:

See, we are lucky because we have that useless foam piece over the spare tire that is just designed to raise the rear trunk height to match the battery pack height. I think we could actually use those hollow spaces to our advantage and have a sub on each side, and use the hollow space as a resonance chamber. Then you could drill a hole about 1.5"-2" in diameter in the carpet of the removable side panels, and a ton of base would blast out! You could probably find a chrome ring of the same diameter to make it look pro!

that is why, unlike the design above, I would put the amp in the middle, and have two 10" subs at an angle on each side. Then the resonance chambers I mentioned would work better. Then to top it all off, I would put a plexiglass window on the top at trunk height, line the wooden housing with carbon fiber vinyl, and add some blue LED's to illuminate the amp and subs... I think it would look amazing!

(Just make sure you add length to all the wires so you can remove the entire unit to get the spare tire and jack out... Ideally it could be designed with hinges or a lift mechanism but I think that is just getting too complicated!)

I feel like the moderator should think about making these posts about the sub another topic because I was just thinking it's OT.
