So, I recently had to replace my diffuser (won't get into why, still a sore spot). I also went with GRP's CF version (Lotus had no OE versions stateside and said a month which likely meant double that) and it is indeed a beautiful, functional and lighter piece. However, I noticed in the install video, they didn't heat shield it. Given, I melted the other one and the fact that the OE version is heat shielded, I did this:

Personally, I would not risk having dry carbon exposed to the the exhaust heat sans any protection. I just used some heat shielding material from Amazon and about 1.5 hours of detail work. Here are a few more pics...

Do you have any pics of it on the car? How much of it can you actually see once installed?

It's identical to the OEM version as far as final fit and size of fins, etc. So just look at your car from whatever angle, and just imagine CF wherever you would see the black plastic.

That's a nice spec. I have most of my cleaning stuff figured but I would like some swivel quick connects on my washers high pressure lines. Perhaps now is the time to get them.
