After pricing a '16-18 LT diffuser, I decided to stick with the 2021 diffuser for now - but if anyone in the northern California area has a stock LT/RS (quad tip) diffuser to get rid of, please message me.

This is awesome! I can’t imagine how much this costs.

I just thought I did good painting my rear brake calipers red. I still like my Camaro with the colors it is.

Drove it. It's damned dirty, especially the wheels. Skipped the wash this past weekend. I'll have to take some time off and giver 'er a little love.

I put my 1LE emblems on the front fenders where the Camaro emblems are normally located. The Camaro emblems were the first thing I removed from the car.

What kind of diffuser is that on your car?

Very nice! And very aggressive looking.

Nice touch, didn't notice it until you mentioned it. Like it was meant to be there.

Looks like this one: https://tinyurl.com/2mhrfc9m

I have it as well. It looks just as aggressive as "necessary", it's very good quality, especially considering its price point, fitment is 99% perfect, and workmanship on mine was impeccable. It might even be functional, but let's be honest, that's not why we buy an SS diffuser.

Diffuser installation is not trivial in general; while some youtube videos would have you think you can do it without removing the rear bumper, don't believe that for a second, unless you want to mangle your bumper. Just bite the bullet and pop it off, devote some time to this project.

I thought about doing that as well but ended up just matching the SS on the rear. While whoever is losing the race they can get a peek of 1LE pulling away.

Yep that's it. It's definitely more involved than I anticipated, removing the bumper is absolutely necessary.

I like that diffuser, and most of your build in fact.

Do you have a video of your car idling you wouldn't mind posting for us to enjoy?

I am leaning towards the smooth idle cam myself and would love to hear yours.

Thanks for the info. I like it because it's fairly subtle. Sounds like kind of a pain to install though. Maybe one day.
