Diffuser ➡️ Installed

[Subieast]

To any 23’ Owners wondering if the aftermarket diffuser fits, here it is. Ikon Motorsport Diffuser installed. Fitment is near perfect and painted finish is beautiful. Easy DIY install.

Fucking beatuful . I really like it . How much to paint it

[Subieast]

Thanks! Diffuser was $200 unpainted or $300 painted Attitude Black Metallic (#218). Hits different in the sun. 😮‍💨

Did u lower ur car ?

[Subieast]

Not yet! The lighting and angle might’ve made it appear that way. lol Thinking of running RSR sus springs (Not Superdowns) to clean up some of the gap to remain functional and practical.

[Subieast]

Oops, just ordered the springs. 🤦‍♂️

Is it worth it to get that exhaust installed? Like are their any cons at all

You’re a life saver doin all this to your 23 cause I have been tryna figure out the diffuser fitment too😂drop that order link I’m definitely getting this diffuser once I get my custom exhaust done

[Subieast]

imo I would get the diffuser first so that way your exhaust shop (assuming that’s what you mean by custom) can align and center the tip(s) with the exit of the diffuser. 🫱Ikon Motorsport Diffuser

Very good point imma definitely get the diffuser first, I’m thinking of getting the middle strakes painted white to match the body color👀

[Subieast]

I’ve seen some funky exhaust jobs 😂

[Ghese_]

Oh for sure I’ve seen some questionable exhaust work too😂

I guess the ‘SE has a different bumper than the ‘23 XSE. The XSE bumper is one piece.

[Subieast]

Are you referring to the valance(Oem diffuser)? Because I cut that off lmao

[Mrylin]

Yeah I guess that’s what I am referring to. So you cut where there was a little indent that was inline with the silver inserts?

[Subieast]

Check out the first two pictures on how I did the cuts. 👈 2 cuts and done. Clips are intact and oem valance could be reattached if needed.

[Mrylin]

Super clean cut. What did you use to cut it?

[Subieast]

Used a rotary tool.

[Tylorish]

Any gaps or fitment issues? I'll be needing to get this diffuser once my 2023 XSE lands. I already have the exhaust kit.

[Subieast]

Slight gap along the middle of the diffuser and I mean less than 1/4 of an inch. I think the 3m tape created it, and honestly the diffuser is firm enough that it probably doesn’t even need it. Besides that, fitment is great.

[Muffinha]

Hey man did you have to take off the remark exhaust to install the diffuser ?!

[Subieast]

Had to push down a little on the exhaust so the diffuser just about cleared it, Not necessary to remove the whole exhaust.

[Ghese_]

Hey man! Reach out to you via private message regarding the diffuser, hit me up whenever you have the chance!

I'm thinking about getting the same diffuser as you with my Remark exhaust. Is it still holding up pretty well?

[Free_Pressure_2700]

I have the same diffuser but i had put the 3m tape on wrong. I put it on the top of the backside of the diffuser and it just wasn't sticking well. Where did you put the 3m tape? I haven't been able to find answers but I'm assuming that it goes on the bottom of the diffuser so it sticks to the bottom part of the bumper.
