Rear Diffuser on

After months of pondering and looking at alternatives finally opened the wallet.

Sore one but happy with it fitted.

Looks great. The genuine one is the best in my opinion. Get the JBSPEED high kick carbon spoiler next, looks mint on MCB.

What exhaust tips are those?

Diffuser looks awesome!

Does the comfort boot access still work?

That's a shame, I wonder if there's a way to modify the diffuser so it works.

In 4 years I've used my foot to open the trunk maybe 3 times. Even then, I only did it because I wanted to see if it worked. For me, it's not a must have feature.

Totally agree it's a waste of time

Sorry guys, I disagree. For me it's a must.

In the 2 months I've had the car I use it 2 or 3 times a week whenever I put anything in the boot, usually bulky things that I have my hands full with.

The carbon diffuser is not for you then. Sometimes you have to make sacrifices when you want upgrades.

I will modify it to work... Sometimes upgrades require some "modifications"

Don't fancy cutting £1k of carbon fibre though if I'm honest. (I know, its not my carbon fibre). It would be totally worthless then.

Nope not possible as the sensors are covered by the diffuser

As has been said you could cut holes in it but that would just be stupid

I want a gloss black one, carbon isn't for me either...

Gloss black might work as I don't recall seeing holes in the standard "diffuser"

I was going to get this painted but stick it on and liked it, fitted Carbon spoiler and mirror caps to suit.

I didn't like carbon either but I had to have a diffuser as the stock one is boring. Once I fitted it the carbon quickly grew on me and ive now got a jbspeed carbon spoiler aswell.

Carbon looks awesome if you don't like it then you are probably in the wrong side of 50 or work as an accountant
