How-To: 2017+ Camaro ZL1 Anderson Composites Carbon Fiber Diffuser Install!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

An in-depth video on installing the #AndersonComposites #Camaro ZL1 Type-AZ carbon fiber rear #diffuser!
This is a very detailed video that includes info on how to remove the rear bumper, install the rear diffuser, and how to re-install the rear bumper. We also take a look at the overall quality of the part, fitment, potential issues, and everything else that you could imagine!
Even without a Camaro ZL1 the overall concepts and what is covered in this video should be useful for all 6th gen Camaros.
Check out the z1lla shop on my website at www.z1lla.com/shop :D There are a lot more products coming soon so check back often! For an expanded listing and wider variety of items take a look at my wife's shop at crimsoncraftery.etsy.com/. Thank you!

*** NOTE: This is NOT a sponsored video and I purchased the diffuser at full price from wildhammermotorsports.com/ (minus the usual periodic sales and coupon codes). It does not seem like the Type-AZ version of the diffuser is on their website at this time to link directly to so if you plan to order from them I'd suggest sending them an email or giving them a call.

    Nice car and excellent video! I don’t have a Camaro but I just received a Anderson’s diffuser for my hellcat and this still helped me. I couldn’t figure out what the metal tabs were suppose to do. Keep up the good work.

    Good Stuff D3RPZILLA. Did Anderson address any of your issues / concerns discovered with this install? It seems like you've got several legitimate fitment issues with this diffuser. Just curious if/how they responded. Great video and details. Keep it up bro. The Z looks awesome

    Thank you! From what I've heard from others I believe Anderson is redesigning/reworking their diffuser mold before they build more diffusers. Not sure if they finished that process up or not as of yet.

    That's why they call me the KING OF CARBON FIBER!! Lol, jk, no one calls me that :*( haha. Nah.. They do sell carbon fiber doors but they lack side impact protection and pretty much, to be safe, require a cage.. I'm not a cage levels as of yet, haha. I'm "mostly" done with carbon fiber after this piece other than probably adding a few to my engine bay ;) AND... my side skirts. I have the side skirts on hand and will be installing VERY SOON. That should complete my exterior look other than maybe a few much less involved items, lol.

    @@D3RPZILLA okay KING OF CARBON FIBER LOL, i personally feel it is not worth the money just for the appearance without taking advantage of the weight deduction on the track. It does look really good but paying 10k for all of those may not be the best bang for the buck. Maybe CF hood is the only i might do. also, there are thousands of wreckless drivers in my area don't even have insurance and they would even sue u LMAO, i would be soooo worried driving the car on the road with those fancy CF. already pretty nervous when I'm around those car ith tape and trash bag DIY repair on LMAO

I'm trying to hold onto my warranty a little longer so instead of going crazy on performance mods I've been keeping myself busy with the show mods... big performance mods coming maybe in a year-year and a half or so ;) but yeah.. tons of dumb drivers and crap roads will make me even more nervous than usual!

    @@D3RPZILLA SAME! The powertrain warranty would last 5yr/60k miles, its not worth it to void at the first 20k. ppl do say these motors are reliable but there would be some issue big or small when you break the OEM balance and it would just cost more money. And ppl got jealous of the car they cant get, ppl have poured beer on my car for nothing when I first bought it and it really pissed me off. i used to treat my car as a "toy" but now Im just daily driving it and if shit happens, ima just get a C8 this time LOL
