Had mine for about a year and half now. Sure, fitment wasn't 100%, but it was pretty good. The reason debris gets thrown up there is from the rear tires, directly by one part of it.

Mine's also screwed to the bumper, which means I have to take off the whole thing as one unit, which isn't too hard.

I love the way it looks, and I've proven that it's effective as well. Gained 7mph at the end of the straight at Road America.

I had mine for almost two years...fitment is ok except the driver side has a little gap to the bumper, I can tweak it to make it a perfect fit but have no time right now. It takes about an hour to install, the drilling is probably the longest during the process...I had hit some chunk of ice while driving in MD and so far its been good. I still need to remove it to clean the inside though.....also my bumper was hit and I was surprised that the CF didn't crack. Below are some pix.

looking good. I started "you bumper alternations" thread, and pretty much APR diffusers showed up. Check my threads if you want to see more
