So IMO the rear diffuser has to much black going on, just would like a few opinions on a diffuser color change. I ordered the black pack instead of the body colored options, This meant that the rear diffuser came gloss black as in the picture No:1. Was thinking of getting the rear part of the diffuser done in the matching red as pic No:2, as this is the way it comes with the body colored option as does the side skirts etc with the option. Or maybe a red stripe around the diffuser, along the bottom and over exhausts. or just leave it.

My ‘16 V6S came with the Gloss Black rear Valence. (No black pack)
It looks fine to me on the ones with center exhausts, but takes on an other worldly look to my eye--like something out of a Star Wars bar scene. I would use the word anthropomorphic but that may have a human connotation. No matter, of course, it's all a matter of personal preference and I don't seek permission on what I do to my possessions.
So it seems that the part comes off the bottom of the diffuser, few complete ones on ebay, so messaged a few sellers to see have they the bottom part in red,

After reading this, I can't seem to get the Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes bar music out of my head 😂🙃
I've always wanted to wrap mine in 3D carbon fiber. No good place to get it done in Vegas.
I got mine hydro dipped to match the OEM CF pattern (water immersion transfer). It only cost about £100 to dip + lacquer and it took less than 5 minutes to swap over. Do you have any hydro places in Vegas? They are normally quite common as there is high demand for hydro dipping things like mobile phones, laptops, etc.

V8. Here is a (not very good) pic from when I added an extra rear camera. The pattern was matched to the OEM bits and whilst it lacks the depth you get with true CF parts it is very hard to tell it is only painted on unless you shine a torch across it.
I got the side sills done in the same way (I have a 2015 with the slimline sills so it is nice and subtle and ties the front and rear diffusers together).
