Description
The Verus Engineering Rear Suspension and Differential Cover Kit is designed to complement the Verus Engineering rear diffuser by creating a smoother, cleaner airflow path underneath the vehicle. By helping feed uninterrupted airflow into the rear diffuser, the covers improve underbody aerodynamic performance while primarily reducing drag on the Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S, and Toyota GT86.
Using state-of-the-art aerodynamic analysis software during the research and development process, Verus Engineering optimized the covers to extract additional aerodynamic performance from the available installation space. The resulting design helps reduce drag while also increasing the downforce generated by the complete rear aerodynamic system.
Verus Engineering utilized in-house vehicle scan data during development to achieve a near-OEM fit and finish on the vehicle.
These rear suspension and differential covers are designed for enthusiasts who want to maximize the performance of their rear diffuser, improve underbody airflow, reduce aerodynamic drag, and enhance overall vehicle efficiency for both street and track use.
Important Compatibility Note: For complete compatibility, these covers must be installed with the Verus Engineering Rear Diffuser A0012A or A0030A. When installed with OEM JDM underbody panels, slight trimming of the OEM panels is required for complete compatibility.
Fitment

Aerodynamic Science
The Verus Engineering Rear Suspension and Differential Covers are part of the Ventus1 aerodynamic package developed for the Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S, and Toyota GT86.
The goal of the Ventus1 package is to improve aerodynamic performance over the factory configuration in a safe and balanced manner. Rather than treating individual aerodynamic components as standalone upgrades, Verus Engineering designed the Ventus1 components to work together as a complete package.
The rear suspension and differential covers help improve the airflow path underneath the vehicle and feed the rear diffuser cleaner air. This allows the diffuser to operate more effectively while reducing aerodynamic drag around the rear underbody.
The resulting package is designed for enthusiasts who regularly participate in track days and want an effective aerodynamic system that maintains balanced vehicle behavior at speed.
For drivers looking for additional downforce beyond the Ventus1 configuration, Verus Engineering also offers the Ventus2 aerodynamic package.
Installation
The Rear Suspension and Differential Covers use a simple, non-invasive bolt-on design and include the necessary brackets and hardware.
For complete compatibility, installation must be paired with Verus Engineering Rear Diffuser A0012A or A0030A.
If installing the covers with OEM JDM underbody panels, slight trimming of the factory panels is required.
