        Cancelled Orders:

        Once the order is placed, any cancelled orders will be charged a 3.5% credit card/Paypal fee that is deducted from the refund. 

        If tracking has already been created, cancelled orders will be charged a 10% restocking fee, based on the order total. The customer is responsible for shipping fees incurred and return shipping fees to send the product back for a refund. 

        We do not provide return labels for orders that ship out of the continental United States. You will have to create your own label to return the product. 

        Returns:
        Our policy lasts 30 days. If 30 days have passed since your purchase, please contact us about the possibility for a refund, store credit or exchange.

        Splitters, chassis brackets, diffusers and side skirts are not returnable or exchangeable.

        To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. There are certain situations where only partial refunds are granted.

        25% restocking fee applies to products returned without all original packaging.  We will provide a return label in the first 30 days (since ship date) and deduct the cost of the return label from the refund.

        After 31+ days customer must ship the item themselves. Shipping charges on the original order are not refundable unless it was a CJM shipping error. We do not provide return labels for international shipments.

        For example: $75 part + $6 shipping fee = $81 order total. Customer would like to return because they no longer need it, or ordered the wrong part. 

        $75 (part cost) - $14 (return shipping label) = $61 refund.

          If you found this product, you likely already know what it is for. 

          This part significantly reduces wind buffeting noise at highway speeds. This wind noise or wind buffeting is also known as Helmholtz resonance. 

           

          Wind buffeting is particularly bad on 2 door vehicles, but anyone in a 4 door will also notice the helicopter-like noise in your inner ear when you open just the front windows. 

          This part is most effective from 0-80mph. Above 80mph the buffeting noise will begin to overcome this parts ability to reduce the resonance. Cross winds can also reduce their effectiveness. These work best when they are diverting air flow from vehicle movement.

          This is designed for USDM models. It may not fit international models outside of North America

          IMPORTANT NOTE: As with any aerodynamic part, other parts upstream on the exterior of the car can effect this part’s function. Splitters, endplates, tire spats, hood vents, fender vents can all change airflow feeding into this part. Our testing was done on a car with our V3 aero kit, fender and hood vents. Your results may vary. 

          Our serrated design is more effective than the small curved profiles you commonly see on Supra's, and Porsche's to combat this noise. Those options do reduce wind noise at some speeds, however they often cause noise at lower speeds. Their effectiveness tapers off above 70mph in most cases (Go read product reviews if you don't believe it). 

          Do these really work!? - don't take our word for it, read the reviews on our website, or check out some video reviews:

          Made of 3D printed satin black UV resistant ABS composite plastic. Adheres to the front triangle window with included 3M VHB tape. The inside edge is contoured to match the curve of the window, and a pocket recessed into the surface for the VHB tape. The side mirrors can still be folded with this installed. 

          Why 3d print this? Because it keeps this part affordable for everyone. Most people don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on milled plastic or carbon versions for a part this small.

          You can lightly sand and paint this plastic if you prefer gloss black finish. 

          Each Order Includes:

          • 1 Driver Side Reducer
          • 1 Passenger side Reducer
          • Pre-applied 3M VHB Tape
          • Alcohol Swab to clean the window 

          Want to further reduce wind noise on track at higher speeds? Add some vortex generators to the A-pillar from our friends at Yeti Race Craft. These compliment our diffusers function and will also reduce drag at higher speeds. 

           

          **Using this part in conjunction with window wind deflectors will create noise at lower speeds.**

          I love being able to drive with the windows open without the wind buffeting. Would buy again

          They work!

          These work pretty well! With the 2 door the buffeting was pretty bad, these clean it right up!
          Plus they make my gti look like the batmobile

          Worked fine at reducing wind

          Worked fine at reducing wind noise, but the adhesive did not hold well at all. Maybe it was too cold out? Currently looking for a suitable adhesive, either some rubber epoxy or CA glue

          Hi David,

          Sorry to hear you had issues. We will be adding some install tips in the box moving forward.

          This VHB tape is rated to hold 50lbs when adhered fully. The cold climate can reduce the tackiness of the tape until it is applied with pressure. If you have a garage, try applying the replacement diffusers after the car is inside overnight. Alternatively, you can run the defrost for 10-15 mins to heat up the windows so they are at least 60* F. That should provide better conditions for the tape to cure properly.

          The part should be pressed and held in place for at least a full minute on each side. Pressure helps the tape adhere more evenly to both surfaces.

          Last, after installing them, do not drive the car for at least an hour to allow the tape to bond. It does not reach full strength until 24hrs after being applied.

          Hopefully this helps.
