I need some pics of rear diffusers fitted to S3

[andy_h]

Trying to fit a freestyle rear diffuser but i'm not sure how far out the back the diffuser should stick out?

 

The diffuser has a curved cut-out in the middle at the rear which looks like it should fit around my rear fog light, which is mounted in the middle and to the underside of the chassis rail via a L bracket, but in doing so the diffuser appears to stick out too far.

 

Also, the diffuser has a cut-out for the near side rear tow eye, but again for my chassis the cut-out appears to be in the wrong place? Could easily cut a new slot but I want to make sure the diffuser is in the correct place first.

 

 

Anyone with some pics to help me?

 

Many thanks,

Andy

I can take more specific shots if you need - just let me know what angle (straight on from the side coming in a moment):

edit -- I measured 90mm horizontally from the back of the chassis to the inside of the lip on the upper-most part of the diffuser, and 125mm from the bottom of the rear-most part of the chassis to the top of the horizontal plane on the RHS of the diffuser (did not measure other side; should be close enough).

Great , thanks.

 

No more pics needed, they're fine.

 

Looks like yours sticks out more than I thought mine should. I'll do some measuring to check.

 

Yours doesn't have a curve cut into it either, but then mine is second hand

 

cheers,

Andy

oh, sounds like a good reason for a blat 😬

 

Off on hols tomorrow so will have to wait until I get back

 

I shouldn't have even been looking at trying to fit it. I was packing the car for hols and I saw it in the garage and couldn't resist.... wife took the kids to the park... it was looking at me saying go on offer me up so you can see how it should fit/look. I couldn't resist... I admit it... I'm weak...[don't tell my wife SIMON that means you 😬]
