SOLD

I'm going to take out my Challenge Carbon Fiber Rear Center Diffuser within 1-2 weeks. It's in great condition and simple installation. MSRPS is 900, selling for 500. Used for 6 months. Installed when I had 4k miles and I have 7.5k miles now. Attached my car picture with diffuser installed.

Local cash pick up only in Irvine, CA

I sold 3 cars (08 E92 335i, 08 E90 M3, 11 E70X5M) and sold/bought bunch of parts here as you can see from my iTrader (62 positive feedbacks).
Buy it with confidence!

I'll be selling Akrapovic Titanium exhaust with C/F tips soon too if anyone interested (5k).

I think it's 2x2. I asked and purchased that matches with OEM BMW C/F parts.

Why parting out? Is the M5 going away?

Yeah.
I'm returning back to BMW and they agree to pay back 100% of payments/downpayment etc.

Long story short, my auto start/stop function wasn't working from day 1.
I thought it was easy fix but after total 13 attempts, 46 days of dealership time and countless collaborations between dealership foreman and BMW NA field engineers between 6/3/14- 2/20/15, I decided to ask them to take it back.

Wow. I would be excited if my auto start stop didn't work. I hate that feature!

What are you replacing it with?

Loved M5 but a couple of things I didn't like about for my daily use:
1. too big and heavy (as being a history of M3 owner)
2. too much power (can't enjoy as I live in town with lots of cops)
3. heavy weight payment.

so I decided to downgrade bit and go with an used 2012 991 Carrera S (loaded with options as I was so spoiled by BMW tech, that's was must).
And as I'm not rich like some of us, I couldn't afford a brand new C2S... =(

Base model was missing power all together, so I decided to go with S model and keep price reasonable.

Not sure I'd consider the '12 C2S a downgrade... Should be an enjoyable ride. Best of luck to you bud.

Thanks- I'm a long BMW guy with 5 M cars and one short lived 3 series.
So I just wanted to try something different but I can enjoy more (not too too fast and lighter weight). I'm sure I'll be back.
