ADRO Model Y Rear Diffuser Pulling

[Arick Dodge]

I’ve owned the ADRO model Y kit for about a few months now and overall I’m very happy with the purchase and fitment.

Since install, the drivers side rear diffuser however has always had a gap (passengers side is flush) and now this area seems to be pulling more and more away from the bumper.

Anyone else with this kit have the same gap/issue? Any recommendations? I’m worried eventually it will look much worse.

Did you test fit it prior installation?

Of course. Other side fits perfect. Apparently, this is a known issue (one side fits perfect while the other side has a gap).

Why are you asking here and not asking ADRO?

Need to install mud flaps to hold it into place. It's what i did to resolve same issue with a different diffuser.

Interesting. Hadn't thought about that approach. Thanks!

That to fix the one side with gap, what about the other side?

I had mine installed in December, and the shop warned me that ADRO did not have the fit quite right on the last batch of Model Y units.

I elected to go with them anyway due to long back order, and will use mud flaps will help secure it. The shop offered to fill that gap with rubber or black sealant if it bothered me (I think they did the latter but it's a little hard to see).
