Carbon Fiber rear diffuser fitment
I have a Vorsteiner Style CF rear diffuser that im trying to adjust to fit better. Basically if i push it up with my hand it fits perfectly but when i let go its natural position leaves a small gap.
shown in the picture (link below) https://photos.app.goo.gl/YwTA7iYuwNyP2RUG3 Anybody know what the best way or have a suggestions to adjust it? I tried double sided tape but it didn't work very well. Thanks! Last edited by MpJaj; 07-23-2017 at 05:12 AM.. |

I let mine (not cf but PU and from ebay) sit out in the hot sun and it got extremely flexible. From there I was able to snap all the tabs in and it retained its shape and contoured to the bumper once it cooled down. No gap issues and no screws!

with mine i had to drill small holes in the tab and had screws hold it in place so it doesn't pop through
it was the only way to keep the diffuser tight and from popping out
