SLP rear diffuser....or similar...PLEASE!!

This is this most beautiful Camaro rear end ever...end of story.

Now why in the hasn't anyone made something similar to the SLP rear diffuser??? Its freaking gorgeous. Yeah sure, we've seen a few members do mock-ups...but thats it.

A while back there was a gent from Germany that was taking OEM valences and converting them to the bumblebee style. Not sure if he's still around though.

Yeah, I don't think he is around any longer from what I've seen.

Must be a patent on this design or something...can't think of any other reason why no company would try and re-create a rear end similar to it.

I doubt its patented. It would cost way, way, way, way more than the wing is actually worth. How come do you think nobody ever patents car designs?

Correct me if I'm wrong .

People have been asking for the concept style diffuser since the camaro came out and no one makes it for sale. Would sell easily.... just saying.

I like the stock one but wanted to cover it in Carbon Fiber hydro-dip stuff but people are wanting way too much to dip parts these days.

I was torn on this diffuser before I pulled the trigger. It looks killer in person.

check rear diffuser thread.............the SLP is so-so, the RDP/OhioSpeed i think is similiar but more aggressive. problem with all new diffusers are getting the frigg'in oem off without a chainsaw, slughammer, and crowbar.

I prefer the Havoc rear diffuser mainly because I think the chrome rings look hideously cheesey. Especially from a distance. Looks like you've got a ricer fart can exhaust. The Havoc diffuser also has more aggressive 'fins'.

Its not hard to remove, if you remove the rear bumper first.
