Need more info on the carbon rear diffusers, ASAP!!! If you just did the carbon vinyl, what's the best angle/method to apply it to prevent creases? It looks fantastic man, I love it.

Hey thanks for the comments! So you cannot pull up to the curb when parking, but I'm still higher up than the corvette. I'm getting a trailer for the Texas Mile on the 28 and hope it will work out, if not I will fix the ramps or drive the 4 hours there. The carbon fiber work was done by "The Install Shop" in Killeen TX with 3MM vinyl. The bumper was completely removed for the installation and they guarantee that it will hold up to the top speed of the car. The Mopar diffuser was wrapped in the vinyl and installed back up too.

Looks good.

I've heavily considered that, but when hyrdo dipping parts with many "peaks" it tends to pull the design and the simulated carbon weave is much wider on some areas of the part than on others. 95% of the part looks convincin, until you see the big wide wavy line and then you're like "Oh... yikes".

Believe me, I wish it were that simple!!

I had the local shop wrap it as well. He did it in place, he used 3mm glue on the edges and as long as I always hand wash the car and don't go to a laser wash it will last 3 years or more. But for a 2004 xfire the rubber there was faded and now it looks great.
