Fitted a rear difusser - Honda CRZ Forum: Honda CR-Z Hybrid Car Forums

Fitted a rear difusser to my CRZ at the weekend. Quite easy in the end. Honda say you are supposed to remove the rear bumper, but it wasn't necessary.

Some pics:

Looks great!! Very clean install.

Where did you get the part?

Strangely enough, on ebay. Very cheap, so I took a chance. Genuine Honda accessory too, so it worked out ok.

Does anyone else find it odd that Honda pretty much hides the tailpipe? I mean, the body is so sculpted and sporty, and then you go looking for some cool chrome-finish tailpipe or something... only to discover, "WHAT tailpipe?!"

when i first saw pics, before i test drove & bought, i thought the diffuser WAS the exhaust outlet.

woulda been neat.

I agree and may do that with a custom exhaust

Some may think with the addon OEM diffuser which I also have, it makes the back look pretty clean making the unitiated think maybe the exhaust is behind the middle screen. Have had a few ask me about that.

Would like to see an center exhaust system that uses the add on OEM diffuser as opposed to going under it.

There are some Center Exhaust systems here, but believe they require one to buy their diffuser..

BTW, Looks good on Red. Thanks for the pics.

Hey that looks good. I was also looking at the one from ebay. How difficult was it to take out the OEM one and install that defuser?
