thx #chinesecopiesftw

Where did you get the diffuser from? M**bargains and RW Carbon have this and they are made in Taiwan so fitment should be better than Chinese examples.

How is the fitment of the rear diffuser? I want the OEM performance one but since I have the cf lip, mirrors, and trunk spoiler, it would only be fitting

Thanks!

JJR4884 · 06-06-2019, 12:55 PM

Car looks great btw

I ended up with these:

splitter - fits well -- durability will only tell over time. it rubs when pulling in and out of driveways at stock ride height

mirrors - fits like stock
https://www.ebay.com/itm/M4-Style-Ca...53.m2749.l2649

diffuser - pain in the ass to install, but once clipped in place it fits perfect (dont give up, it will fit. lol)
https://www.ebay.com/itm/For-BMW-F32...53.m2749.l2649

spoiler - fits well, make sure you use 2 way tape everywhere and it will stick fine
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Carbon-Fibe...53.m2749.l2649

corner lights - oem replacement
https://www.ebay.com/itm/DEPO-Smoke-...53.m2749.l2649

wheels - perfect offset (no need to wheel spacers to match fender width)

not worried about it at all. it really comes off the line pretty soft...not like it brake boosts and builds 10lbs off the line. It still has to spool.

I guess just from what I've seen. I had JB4 once upon a time, and even at stock levels, the tranny temperatures jump up ~20 degrees with the launch control

did it twice just to confirm. Never used it again post-MP tune

SoCalCarGuy · 06-10-2019, 09:38 PM

dropped on H&R's

good answer!

Any CEL? Or is BM3 clearing it?

cdwalls · 07-04-2019, 12:30 PM

The fit is really good surprisingly, i didn't have a lot of leverage when i installed so the rear didn't quite make it to the wheel well on the side pictured. They're matte black / exposed plastic
