MSRP is $205 for a set. The parts only come in black but are a paintable TPO plastic.

Even in black they look good. I've got a pic of a set on a red Crossfire, but I cant get it to upload. PM me and I'll email to ya if you want it.

These are a dealer order item. Dealers will receive a mailing on them next week. If a dealer inputs the part number in the Mopar system, they will show up.

usually a 20-25% discount.

i like....but now you will really have to paint your tow hook black for blending sake. it would be an eyesore (especially on a white crossfire).

I don't think it looks any better. Save the $200 bucks!

I'm with Dan...for $200 bucks...buy the front Brembo cross drilled rotors and it'll look better plus makes your crossfire perform well too!

Diffuser? looks more like drag.. anybody ever notice that all these rice burners throw all these wings, scoops, flares, body mods, fins, vents, bling bling crap, ect. On their cars but don't check to see if it helps? If all your looking for is looks then spend $205 +20% but before you go modifying your car take a look at the real race cars, and almost all exotic cars are sleek, and have as little amount of drag as possible. Now our car "crossfire" with exception to the grill and the faux-side vents has very little drag, our car is a wing, and as we all know a wing has as little amount of drag as you can get. That's why Chrysler installed a rear wing and lower diffuser. To cancel "lift" at speed. So throwing more crap on it is "just throwing more crap on".

our cars are not designed like wings. its the rear boattail design that induces lift. there's no trunk lid to create down force onto the rear wheels.

a wing is designed such that the airflow up top passes faster (more velocity, less pressure) than the airflow beneath the wing (less velocity, more pressure). that pressure difference lifts the wing.

either way, i do agree that this "diffuser" from MOPAR is for looks.

Hey Cyril, have you really tested those brakes yet and have they seated in? Mine are awesome! Love the swooshing noise they make! Next you have to get the Goodridge stainless steel lines. About $120.

The cross drilled Brembo brakes are great! I got all 4's installed now and it greatly improved my XFIREX looks! Much more sporty..though I got a headache after a few test rounds..lol! Yeah, the swoosh is just like the sound of cars in the movie and the looks can make a cop droll!

Dan, been looking still for the SS brake line, what's the product code? Or any Goodridge SS brake lines will fit just fine?

Every accessory has it's function. Some are for performance and others are for personalization. This particular accessory adds character to the vehicle with out hindering performance. The part did not effect drag as it tested neutral in the wind tunnel.

Since YOU don't like them... maybe you should write Chrysler and ask them to be removed from all the SRT6s...
Man, I'm glad you like Red or maybe Chrysler would have made Pink instead...

This is nothing new. They've been out awhile. They look best in black not body color. Several other exotic cars have this effect in the rear...all in black.
You need that contrast.
