F30 335 M-sport Diffuser

Any opinions on rear diffuser that goes with m-performance carbon tips.

Replica vs OEM?

Black PP vs Carbon fiber.

Appreciate if you could share your opinions.

I got the OEM from ecstuning for 400 (black, unpainted) and couldn't be happier. The replica ones from Ebay didnt fit well.

Bought one from eBay, it fits 95%, I believe if I take the bumper out to install it will fit 100%.

Any opinions on color???
Gloss black looks good on EB2 metallic?
Right now kinda off looks good, but thinking of getting painted in summer.

Mine is an unpainted replica from a company that sounds like mod + gains (I can't say their name here for some reason?). Anyways, cost me $200 and to be honest it sucked to install. It isn't curved like the stock piece so I had to force it into place. Took like 2 minutes to remove the stock piece and like 45 minutes install the new one. The tabs don't line up perfectly.

Overall I'm pretty happy for $300 less than the real M Sport one.

I got the m performance one on eBay for about $380. Haven't installed yet cause I'm still waiting on my car . The replica looks great though, nice work man.

ebay for $169, fit 95% as the right corner didnt fit 100% but after some pushing and flexing the bumper i got the tabs to snap in and you cant even tell standing behind the car. up close if you are really inspecting it you could see the issue. i also wrapped my rear reflectors in matte black vinyl to match.

Looks good from the picture. Who's the seller you purchased from?
