parello9 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) ok so i need some help as im unable to decide This is what the rear of my car looks like currently It has the Tarmac TS diffuser on it which i like and think suits the car down to the bone! But its giving me a few problems being so low and im thinking to take it off! Get some Tarmac rear spats instead in black to keep the black theme going at the bottom So this it will be like this but with spats to give it a cleaner look and get away with being how low i am now without raising it at the same time i think this looks cool as fook But that would mean changing my exhaust aswell but to be fair that is a nismo exhaust and i would have to get one similar like a millitek But now here is my main problem i have my car looking how i want it for show season and dont have the spare cash for all this So will have to take the diffuser off Sell it buy nismo spats fit them See if i like it Then if i dont big regrets!! I also hate the fact the japspeed exhuast has that pipe and would much rather a shiney backbox there My future mods would also include a BGW which i think will look better with my TS diffuser Wow that was a long post haha! Please people share your thoughts Spats in black instead of diffuser? Yay Or Nay Edited March 26, 2014 by parello9 Quote
Grundy Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I think.....you should swap your TS for my JDM diffuser Quote
parello9 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 haha you do need the ts diffuser for that wing Quote
Ebized Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 If you wanted a Millitek a s/h one won't come better than this http://www.350z-uk.c...-steel-exhaust/ Quote
Daryl Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I dont think the side steps or the diffuser go well on a car that is that low. If you go for rear spats, and want to keep the side steps, then the spats need to be black. Quote
parello9 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 i dont have the funds for a new exhaust yet thats why its making the decision harder and Daryl that's exactly how it will be black spats Quote
Daryl Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Dont think it would look bad with black spats and with your current exhaust. Quote
parello9 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 yeh that's what im thinking its a shame my exhaust looks so good without the bungs but sounds better with I might go up to my local exhaust place who customize exhausts everyday and see if they could fit a backbox like the nismo one instead to run no bungs and to have a big box instead of pipe.. think it wouldnt really work though Quote
parello9 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 do it an buy my fuji exhaust haha I said shiny exhaust plus like i said i have no funds at all... you could buy my ts though Quote
Payco Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 You need a chargespeed rear bumper !!! Payco 1 Quote
StevoD Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 do it an buy my fuji exhaust haha I said shiny exhaust plus like i said i have no funds at all... you could buy my ts though you cheeky barsteward Quote
AliveBoy Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 You need a chargespeed rear bumper !!! Payco He's trying to move away from OEM Quote
parello9 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 haha I like the charge speed but yeh i need some sort of black on the side like the spats Im still in 2 minds especially after seeing those 350's stevoooooooo posted in my for sale thread I might raise the car by an inch and try and raise the diffuser somehow Cause when the BGW is ordered it will match up nicely Quote
AliveBoy Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 get nismo spats and run a single This is what I have Quote
parello9 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 its not that its just the fact the middle part underneath catches on certain bumps.. like it may break then il loose £250 Quote
StevoD Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 its not that its just the fact the middle part underneath catches on certain bumps.. like it may break then il loose £250 this is why ive raised mine about 2 inches now Quote
parello9 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 its not that its just the fact the middle part underneath catches on certain bumps.. like it may break then il loose £250 this is why ive raised mine about 2 inches now lol i know its hard choices especially if your driving on a road your not sure of with a speed bump i see why this guy just has spats probably now as you can get lower it seems Quote
StevoD Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 but is going to rip his exhaust off on anything bigger than a frog, it is a life style being low a lifestyle of being slow late and lots more miles, but does draw attention every were you go Quote
Grundy Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Low ftw - If mine wasn't a daily, I'd happily scrape around the world. Quote
StevoD Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Low ftw - If mine wasn't a daily, I'd happily scrape around the world. mines not my daily but when drifting sunday for first time with the coilovers and ride height the tarmac sportz side diffusers ran the ground alot Quote
parello9 Posted March 26, 2014 Author Posted March 26, 2014 yeh mines daily and cause a few problems on the way to santapod with the un even roads Quote
pjf1985 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 On the subject of scraping going over speedbumps, does the diffuser make you all that much lower? In the pic it doesn't look like it does much, and least it will protect your exhaust! Just wondering if the spats will make much difference... Quote
