ok boys and ladies, i have a aero blue srt6 and i am going to purchase rear diffusers for my car..
Q: should i buy black or buy aero blue?

i think blue would stand out a little more
HELP?

 

you can't "buy" aero blue.. you get them black and then paint them to match if you like..

another member james has them painted silver, i really like them.. they really stand out.. blue would blend in with the car too much

 

i know they come in black but just asking if blue would flow better..but thank you for your opinion it helps..i will have to look and think about silver

 

Not to step on toes here, but if you paint them black, they disappear under the car, only my opinion. I think the Aero Blue is a bright enough color they will show up. But then I recommend silver to match the trim on the rest of the car. They are molded in a charcoal color.

For what it is worth. James

PS Duplicolor makes a silver wheel paint I used that will match the trim fairly close. Over the silver I used clear. If you go Aero Blue, you may have to have them professional painted to match and that raises the cost considerably.

 

I have a SSB and left the diffusers black (or charcoal - whatever color they were when they arrived). I debated painting them but when I temporarily tried them out I liked them the original color. Plus I don't have to worry about rocks being thrown up and chipping the paint. When I detail the car I always put a coat of Meguiar's Hyperdressing on them to keep them looking new.

 

You might think this is an inane question but it shows that I'm paying attention ...what exactly is a rear diffuser? I'm assuming it isn't the rear spoiler. Is it a piece of trim that attaches on the bottom of the rear bumper? Color wise, I'm a fan of monochromatic paint schemes.

 

ok so now i am stuck...i like the silver idea, black is still questionable and blue may be to expensive to do..hmmmm?

 

I purchased a set and didn't really care for the way they attached. (Tape & Screws)

So I adhered mine to the rear bumper with some stronger-than-sh*t panel adhesive.

I filled in the holes, smoothed the surface out - made them seamless at the bumper - then painted and clear coated.

Looks great Brian.

 

Thanks Steve -

I like a tight - seamless rear end - especially on the SRT6

 

O BRIAN i like the blue..the pic puts things in better view.. now blue or silver on a blue srt..hmmm

 

I think you should go with the body color. It will stand out just the right amount. Even if you have to save up a little for getting it painted (which may be cheaper than you may think.)

Brians looks real "clean" meaning it looks like the factory planned it that way.

 

Very nice. It looks so much better debadged. One of the first things I did.

 

Wow, I rarely like de-badged trunks- however this looks great! Did the Chrysler oval & wings come off without exposing mounting/centering holes?

 

I made mine body colored. I haven't regretted it.

 

No - There was a fair amount of work to do before the final paint-clearcoat-color sand & buff.

Left mine black. I like the arch effect. Squirrel Crusher

 

Very nice. I would stay with the body color. They look original to the car.

 

I wanted to add Brian that it looks incredible with the seam filled in. I wish mine looked like that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Brian, It looks great without the seam. But I have to ask, how did you fasten the two panels together to prevent cracking in the future?
