Question Seibon Diffuser

http://www.ebay.com/itm/SEIBON-Carbo...cb878b&vxp=mtr

Seibon is making what looks to be a really aggressive diffuser now? Anyone have it yet?

How is that even supposed to fit into our diffuser slot? Picture seems wrong or some kind of misinformation.

i have no idea... i was just browsing ebay and saw it on there... i have no desire to contact seibon to find out more information, but maybe someone will. just wanted to bring it up, because if it does look like the picture then it's actually somewhat functional, which is cool.

Yeah I'm not interested in it either, but the listing has ended so maybe he realized his mistake.

This looks like it replaces the current shielding below the exhaust/bumper, NOT the insert in the actual bumper.

yep. it should be about 18"~24" wide and mounts dead center, back from where the diff sits, with the fins pointing down. this screws into the rear bumper insert that we keep calling a diffuser, even though it's really just an insert.

that appears to be the diffuser for the wrx.

they do, however, seem to have a diffuser for the e82 coming out.

that does look a lot like it. doesn't look very good, imo- looks like a universal splitter tacked on the rear end.

Why? If it's functional, then how is it rice?

It may not be your style, but "rice" it is not.
