The purpose of a rear diffuser is to reduce air turbulence as your car drives at high speeds. Rear diffusers decrease drag, making your car more stable at high speeds and reducing the amount of wind resistance it must overcome. Less wind resistance means your vehicle will be able to utilize its existing horsepower and torque more efficiently. A rear diffuser also adds style to your car.
Weight reduction is the most effective way to improve a cars performance. Weight reduction increases acceleration, throttle response, handling, braking, and fuel economy. Carbon fiber is key to improving performance that is why it is found so frequently in modern race cars. Carbon fiber is much lighter than the heavy factory components it replaces. The benefits of Carbon fiber are twofold. Not only is it lightweight, but it is also very strong and gives your car a unique look. Its unique weave pattern is known by car enthusiasts worldwide. It is possible, however, to paint over carbon fiber to keep the stock look of your vehicle. It is recommended that you clear coat carbon fiber to protect it from UV rays that may deteriorate it over time.
