Varis rear diffuser installed
 

I had the Varis rear half-spoiler installed this week. Thought I'd post the results since there has been some interest in what the part looks like. This is only the FRP version but the fit was perfect.
Update 12/27/10: I added a few more pics to show the space b/t the diffuser and the bumper (below the license plate area). The space seems to be by design since the little bridge that connects both sides of the diffuser is taped flush with the bumper. I also tried to get some pics underneath the car but I couldn't fit. Did the best I could. Hope these help.

looks good...i dont know why all the manufacturers are making things with the rear fog light hole. at the very least, make a version without it, cleans things up so much!

That's a clean spoiler, nice!

Looks good Man!

looks good with your setup

what web site to buy it? or the price........do they have carbn fiber?

i like it... your car looks awesome...

Nice, i'm pulling the trigger on these soon. My color set-up will be a bit diff tho.

Looks interesting :tup:

From this photo on 370ZTune, I would say that Varis must make a CF version:

Unfortunately they don't have the item listed for sale on their site. :confused:

This could be it.....however no photo is included at this link:

Varis Carbon Rear Lip Diffuser 370Z Z34

Price: $1275.00

Thanks for all the kind words :-) I got it thru 370TUNE.com. I can't remember if I paid 593.00 or 693.00 but the price seems to have gone up a bit.

Looks great on your car!

Thanks for the pics, I thought they only made it in cf? At least we could see it on a car other than black.

Could you take a pic of under the car by the exhaust, I wanna see if it's an actual functional diffuser, thanks

Very nice!! :tup:

i like it. :tup: not for my car but looks good on yours.

Varis = $$$

Waiting on the Varis CF hood to arrive for my car.

That diffuser looks great! :tup:

You would know :roflpuke2:

Prices have gone up on 370ztune lately because the ForEx rate has continued to degrade. The dollar is only worth like 80something yen now.

It does look good, but I think you need some other accents on the car now because the rear looks way busier than the rest of the car now!

Varis > Amuse

(lets start a flame war)

Varis >>>> Amuse

(flame war over.)

:tup: I want my hood.....MEOW!

Yes, I can do that, but I can tell you right now I don't think its functional. Underneath the car, the spoiler conforms to the shape of the bumper. It extends a little further and sits a lot lower but that's all.

Really?????!?!?!?!?


(flame war on again like tension between the Koreas...)

I was just wondering if there was any functionality, that pic would be great. Is there any gaps in the piece?

that's beautiful man!:tup:

look great!!!

I like it alot, have you ever thought about molding the rear. It seems like this rear flows well with the car, and could look almost stock sort of molded.

Nice job, I hope aggressive wheels are in your future to finish off the look

How is it held on? Screws/tape?

I'll try and get some more pics this weekend, weather permitting. There are no "gaps," per se, except by design. The spoiler does not install flush across the entire length of the bumper. It’s difficult to describe the design, but, along the area beneath the rear license plate section there is space b/t the natural curvature of the spoiler and the flat surface of the bumper. I’ll see if I can get some shots for you.

Molding the rear? I'm not sure what you mean?

I am planning to upgrade both the wheels and tires when my factory tires finally wear out. I'll be searching this board for ideas. I don't know much about offsets and spacers beyond what I've read here.

Yup. It uses three screws: one in each wheel well and one underneath the fog lamp enclosure. The rest is tape.

Molding the rear diffuser....in other words.....you make the diffuser look as if the rear of the car came that way from the factory. I molded my Mine's front lip to my OEM front bumper.....

If you look close, you won't see any appearance like the lip was an "add-on".....it looks as if it came that way straight from the factory. The best photo you posted that shows the rear diffuser is an add-on is here:

You can see the line that separates the OEM bumper from the add-on diffuser. Not sure if that helps explain the situation but I hope it does. Feel free to PM me if you have any other questions. :tup:

Varis makes FRP and Carbon versions of each piece of their aero kit (front, side, rear) but it's just out of order on our website so it may be hard to find. Here is our Varis section with all the parts Varis offers listed:

Hope that helps.

Hm. I see what you mean. I like what you've done there. I'll look into it. Thanks for the post.

Mike, can you pm a price on the carbon version of this diffuser & how long it takes to ship, thanks

I can't stop looking @ these. I can't wait till mine come in. @ 2theextreme, thanks for the info regarding the molding. I never knew that was possible. Check your inbox.

PM replied....and I had no idea it was possible, either! I blame Mike @ 370ZTune for posting a picture of a white 370Z that had a molded Mine's lip and when I saw that....I couldn't resist! :icon17:
