It looks nice as always.
Would you take off the black bottom of the bumper for races or something? It would make the aerodynamics better.

I didn't realise the diffuser wouldn't be flush with the bumper, but once again......

I was just about to ask where you source all your bumper strips from aswell as they are getting rare now, best of luck finding one
