This video explains how I built my own rear diffuser out of foam board & fiberglass. I know it's not the nicest out there, but for under $100, its a fun, easy, DIY option. Feel free to ask any questions you may have. I will be making a video in the future showing the fiberglass & bedliner processes. NOTE: The diffuser tucks under my bumper. The black you see on the outside is plastidip I sprayed on to mimic the "Mature" style of diffuser seen here.http://www.forcewerkz.com/2002-2007-subaru-wrx-sti-mature-style-rear-diffuser-carbon-fiber/ 🔴TIME TO COMPLETE: About 3 hours to build. It could take many more to figure out the angles, how to trim it, & how to mount it. The first time I did this project it took me about 20-30 hours total to complete. However a large majority of that time was spent figuring out how to make my idea work. I have never seen a diffuser like this, so it was completely new to me & I was creating the process as I went. 🔴PRICE BREAKDOWN: QUANTITY🔧MATERIAL🔧COST 1 box🔧cardboard box (cut for template)🔧$2 3-4 sheets 🔧foam board🔧$5 each 1 roll🔧masking tape🔧$4 3-4 bags🔧 fiberglass cloth🔧$7 per bag of 8sq ft 2 quarts🔧fiberglass resin🔧$15 per quart OR $40 per gallon varies🔧brushes, mixing cups, etc🔧$5 varies🔧mounting hardware🔧$5-10 1🔧respirator mask🔧$30+ 1 can🔧 truck bed liner🔧$7 🔧🔧TOTAL: About $130 plus tax if you don't have anything on the list.
