Don't go on-line. Just call Russell at 360-352-8558 as he said on another post. He will get you better price (employee pricing I believe).

Anyway, I will take pics tonight and post. Sorry for the delay.

Of course it's not functional. None made for Lancer/Evo are. The one on the Evo X's are not either from all I've read.

Anyway, for kicks, here is a couple pics of the diffuser that I like the most. I wish it was more readily available in the US. It was going to be 3X the price of the Mitsu diffuser ($520 shipped from Malaysia (uncut and in one piece)).

That is Beyonddc's lip. He got it from ARS and it is $125 shipped and in 2 pieces.

So this looks ok....
how long is it?

Is there a certain way to line it up so its equal on each side on the bumper (centered)?

The diffuser is black in colour?

And the holes, are they hard to drill...do they make a mess when drilling?


Im inquiring before I buy!

Wow, I missed ARS's offering somehow, although I wouldn't want it coming in two pieces, even if I had to pay a lot more shipping.

I was originally looking at the one from either EvoSoul or VoxMotorsports, but Evosoul (where I got my front bumper pieces) was going to be $525, and VoxMotorsports was maybe $100 cheaper but strangely only accepts bank check/transfer.

Anyway, regarding installation, as I mentioned earlier, this was the easiest install you could imagine. Used my cordless drill to drill the holes. Took <1 min. to do that part. No big deal. Easiest install I've done in years. And yes, it is mat black in color. It matches up perfectly with the Evosoul side brake vents and front bumper pieces, and the stock side window center sections.

yeah, sorry about that. i saw it after i made my post.
however, i'm looking for something custom. not the oem look. ideally, i'd like to add a bit more depth to the back-end, while hiding a bit more of the exhaust. any idea where i can go or who i can talk to?
