rear underspoiler

I didnīt like the way you looked under the car from behind so i made a little spoiler under the rear bumper.
Its made out of sheetmetall and has cutouts where the exhaust sticks trough it.
How do you guys like this spolier??
Greetings from holland!

Looks good. I always thought it would look cool if you had the tips coming out of stock rear bumper with something to shield the heat from melting it.

Thanks for the replys!
Iīm also happy with the results.
I def. didnīt like the way you looked under the car from behind and how the exhaust was hanging under it..
It took me about 2 nights to make this spoiler, hardest was to make the corners look good.
But overall wasnīt to hard to make it.

That looks nice from what I have seen. I would really like to see a well lit picture of it though. Can you use a drop light, or something like that to really illuminate the pic.

Looks good though. I might have to steal your idea.

What do you have it mounted to? And how do you have it mounted? on the bumper with the push pins for the bumper?

Its mounted to the inside of the bumper with special plugs.
The middle part is actually not much more than an aprox. 4 inch wide strip thats a little curved and has cutouts for the exhaust.
The side parts are screwed to the middle part and are also mounted with the same screws that hold the rear-side ground effects.

Camaros in Holland, wow, they're everywhere! I really like what you did there. Maybe I'll do it to my new dual exhaust, as soon as I get it...
