I just finished installing the 1LE diffuser on my 2010 SS and I have a gap at each end as if the diffuser was to short. Can someone give me some feedback on this please

PalmerGA · 10-04-2015, 05:52 PM

Yep. Looks like the diffuser is too short on each end. I think it's upside down, too. Sorry... that's all the feedback I have.

tangyiomss · 10-04-2015, 06:08 PM

Yeah sorry that it is upside down. I don't understand why it is short I thought that the 1LE differ was a direct fit

GetYouOne · 10-05-2015, 04:30 AM

what kind of tips do u have? Did ur installer do it correctly? I had the 1LE diffuser with mine and it all matched up.

Try turning it over.

Is it possible some of the tabs just aren't pressed in all the way? That could cause it to look like that.

I installed it myself. Currently have the factory single exhaust tips. Taking it tomorrow to have the quads installed.
I will check to make sure all the tabs are pushed in

Same thing happened to me when I installed my ground effects about a week ago. You have to really push in. And make sure the area where the rear plate goes is snapped in properly.

The guy at GM says I need to order a new rear fascia that matches the diffuser

I'm pretty sure the bumper covers are the exact same..

Really? I recently put quad tips on my LS and use the 1LE rear diffuser and it fit perfectly

tangyiomss · 10-05-2015, 05:24 PM

My thoughts exactly. I need to figure this out

The guy at GM is an idiot.

Get some measurements... see if a local dealer has one in stock and compare for discrepancies. Mine fit good, no issues.
