Any updates on the "street" version?

Figured I would add this pic to show the standoffs that I had to use to clear my Greddy Evo3:

I'm trying to find a local place to have them cut. I may end up going back to my place in Washington and just have to choke down the $500 in shipping...

@Wonderbar

Who has changed out the screws that mount the sides of the diffuser to the area behind the rear fender wells for bolts with washers and nuts to get a little extra security? I saw @King Tut 's pics but i'm looking for more info on how to get in to that area and drop bolts in there. Last time I was under there I was a little lost but I want to swap to more secure hardware when I have it off again soon.

This is on my to do list over the winter, but I'm pretty sure if you remove the rear wheel well fender liners this will give you access to that area so that you can secure a nut and bolt for the diffuser.

I don't remember having to remove anything. I think I just drilled holes.

i used a couple black zip ties in a loop through each hole after ripping mine out when having to fix the catback falling off hangers on track,

worked very well
