IKON MOTORSPORTS REAR DIFFUSER!!! Camaro SS Rear Diffuser Install!

Glad to know everyone else is struggling with this install. Trying mine without removing the bumper. Not easy😐
Thank you for your how to video, I bought the same for my 17 2SS that I’ve been waiting to install. ❤

I feel like Chevy should’ve done better with the body style for the camero especially if your gonna keep the same style body at least make the bumper look good so when people pull up behind the car they’ll know your in a 2SS or better just like dodge got some what different looks for the scats and cats

At 18:57 looking at the edges, you can see that it isn't flush with the bumper (you can see the clips and see through to the other side, barely). This is the issue most people (myself included) have with the bumper not being a perfect flush fit. Did you ever manage to get it a more snug fit? To where you can't see through at all. Or barely (less than the mentioned timestamp).

Did u put those alligator clips back on? Mine just fell off and I didn’t even know what they were. I don’t think they’re crucial to have on but just curious.
I just installed my diffuser, I was wondering were you able to reinstall all the alligator clips back on? I could not install two. One on the far left and one on far right. Behind the new design moulding, could not push diffuser back.

There are 2 versions of the IKON rear diffuser. You have the more aggressive of the 2 which I am leaning towards. Have you heard if one version sits better on the bumper than the other? Really want this to fit clean with no gaps.

I’ve had both versions, used the other on my old car. This one looks better, mine fit perfect but have heard a few people say they can’t get rid of the gaps in theirs. The other one fit pretty snug against the car, but in my case, this one did as well
