Default bumper diffusers

I've been reading up on diffusers, I think they would be really great for those high speed autobahn racinng, plus some 1/4 mile races. I've been looking around but all I see is negative results, and plus I don't know if cutting holes in my bumper is a good idea, I don't really like the ones that goes under the car, the ones that comes on ferraris and such cars they look too ricey.

whats ya'll opinions, and facts?

get creative w/ some sheet metal. pan the bottom of the car in the rear, it doesnt have to be perfectly flat as long as keeps your bumper from being a parachute

Until you're stuck running 9.01 and looking to dip into the 8's, don't worry about it.

I would rather do that than cut up the bumper. But looking at this realisticly you really don't need to worry about it.

but don't it takes all thats possible to make it a little faster? even if its not that fast a few 10ths is improvement correct?
I am strongly thinking of it, but just can't make up my mind if I should.
