The rear diffuser fell off over the weekend. Thanks to my modular 3 piece design, the rear diffuser was the only casualty.

One of the aluminum bars i used snapped at one of the bends. If you notice, the top bar was on it's last legs too!


Luckily, my girlfriend was not in the car when this occurred, or else my ecomodding days will be OVER!



The rear bumper spoiler project is on the back burner now. Since i take the train to work everyday, my daily commute is only 15 miles round trip, so i'm not sure if i will get any meaningful gains from that project. Plus my mpg's are going down the tube!

Time to think of rear diffuser re-designs version 2.5
