Like recently on sweedish forum, I can offer these types of rear diffusors if people are interrested for the next group order ASAP :

"Short TAT version" could be at 151£ without painting and without delivery (+ 30£ estimated Tb confirmed) made of ALU (2 mm thickness).
"Extended TAT version" could be at 162£ without painting and without delivery (+ 30£ estimated Tb confirmed) made of ALU (2 mm thickness).

It's come with all necessary holes and 1 special long front bracket and 2 additional short rear brackets due 2 holes were added for a perfect flush effect from the rear + 2 screws and washes + 2 special nuts (Like Vauxhall nuts on diffusor) + recommendation for use + special packaging.

Recommendation's for use (sorry in french but pics are explicit) :
(One english version could be available)

Let me know if somebody could be interrested with us B)

Love that short (top.) one mate. Imnotworthy

A diffuser that looks cool from the rear without the hideous sticky out bits. thumbsup Do you retain the standard undertray plate??? Does it touch the rear clam at all, looks very close. :unsure:

If it goes ahead, I MAY be interested. Some more detailed pics of the short one would help. thumbsup

You can not retain the standard undertray plate.

You have to fix it at the same place with the same fixings + 2 new one created with the 2 rear small brackets.

Yes it touches it (The rear clam) but there is no movement possible due to 14 fixings. But you can add foam between clam and diffusor at strategic's place if you prefer to prevent for all.

Potential list to be confirmed :

- djegiant TAT version :)

:groupjump:

Added brackets in place :

I tested it personnaly at more than 143 mph without any problem and other french member test it every day. Moreover, I drived on bad road (stones and holes) for mile without any problem. For the policy here, I don't know exatly what is about but it is not a commercial task here but just like we did on sweden forum when it is about all member benefit. I didn't want cross something and I'd like to apologize for this if necessary here. Let me know if there's problem with that :rolleyes:

Never seen one short enough for my liking - until now!!! What finishes are availabe? You mention painting, would this be available in satin black and do you know how much painting would cost? Could it be powder-coated or anodised in black (or other colours) and again, do you have any idea of cost, I'm worried that paint may chip too easily :blink: Thanks :)

could someone explain the benefits of having a splitter like this? maybe slightly off topic, but as good a place as any I suppose. I could be interested, as I think theses are actually cheaper than the vauxhall standard one (mine is a bit dented)

The benefit is the same as rear spoiler + the look of course.

I would also be interested in the short version.

It takes 4 weeks minimum from order to delivery

Agree...Short version looks factory fitted. Best i've seen. Do you have definate prices inc. postage?


I'm having a look this week and will confirm ASAP.

I'm testing painting version for me and one french member in varnish black from professionnal job.

I will test it on road to see how it work.

In the same time I looking for anodising job but without sucess yet.

So only black or grey version painting could be available yet. Once again, cost depends on quantity interessted in painting but could be around 27£ in this hypothesis (Qty 5 for example)


Potential list to be confirmed :

- djegiant ALU no painting TAT version :)
- Applepie ALU no painting TAT version :)
- NickB777 ALU no painting TAT version :)
- I need nos ALU painting in grey TAT version :)
- cthomas443 ALU no painting TAT version :)
- Kenni ALU no painting TAT version :)
- RIK ALU no painting TAT version :)
- Kipper ALU no painting TAT version :)
- Shamone ALU no painting TAT version :)
- Vocky ALU no painting TAT version :) (Possibility of anodised ?)


Well done :groupjump:
