    I hope you all enjoyed this DIY for the R32. This project can be used for almost any car and is pretty simple to do if you want to give it a shot

    Great job. Way better than the foam project, but as i said before, hats off to you for running with and idea and sticking with it it even if the first or second time didnt pan out. I would put that on my R32.

      Joshua Hawkins thank you! Ya it was a struggle to get it to work but I’m very happy how it turned out! Can’t wait to get the car repainted so I can see the final product

    Much cleaner than the foam! Sometimes going back to the drawing board yields the best results.

    Looks good, I was thinking about making my own because I can’t find one to fit the stock exhaust on the mk5 gti, only ones available are ones for the r32 mk5. Mk5 r32 is two centre exhaust whereas the Gti has two to the left.

    First of all can I just say, we all need friends like Justin. "Hey Andrew, I broke my ankle and it's now in a cast. Don't worry though, ill be round in the morning to work on your rear diffuser" 💪
    As for the diffuser, the fit looks really good but personally If its mainly for styling and not functional I would have preferred the fins to be slightly more contoured instead of a vertical drop.
    Great work though, loving the commitment. Are you planning to finish off the edges of the diffuser??

    • @ThreePedalGarage
      @ThreePedalGarage  4 роки тому

      Yep I’m planning on finning them off just need to get some time away from work to work on it. I’m planning on making a second edition of the diffuser that will be more active and actual work I Just want to get the style done first and then I can figure out the aerodynamic part of it.

    11:25 it sounds like the music is saying Malala’s doomsday lol I can’t like stop hearing it, anyways cool video! Really helpful, I was like wanting the foam to work.. that’s what I thought when I searched like diy diffuser and your snippet at the beginning was helpful.. so I think I’ll try to get a premade one since this is about the same price. Sorry bad writing for some reason lol

    I assume that this ''diffuser' is just for looks? With the acute angle and without a laminar flow from the front to the back all you have achieved is to add weight. Fanboys will probably love it though :-)
