RKP trunk lid and diffuser

These look awesome.

Diffuser was a bit of a pain to get clipped in completely.

I wasn't sure if I was to reinstall the two smaller pieces that were attached to the OEM diffuser. I didn't. Doesn't seem to change the fit at all.

Looks good! I'm running the same combo also!

Do you think the diffuser is a fitment issue or was it cold when you put it on or both? I'm leaning towards RKP due to more aggressive looks compared to M Performance and cheaper to boot.

The fitment doesn't visually appear off. I'd go ahead with the purchase. I did install cold.

Agree fitment was really close. Did mine cold as well but ended up heating up the diffuser a little to get it to slide in easier.

Hi I’m just wondering how long does the trunk lip need to bond before taking it for a long highway drive? Thanks in advance.

I don't have a real answer for you.

But, not much time. I put it on, put my diffuser on, gave the lip a shake and it was on solid.

As long as you prep right (clean area before w/ Isopropyl alcohol and add 3m adhesive promoter) it's not going anywhere.
