My Rieger Rear

Cozy · 04-21-2013, 06:34 AM

No issues with fitment at all, clearly a decent amount of R&D went into this. There are four tabs along the top which slot exactly into the holes of the bumper. You then have three or four bolt holes underneath which again bolt into the existing holes in the under carriage. Thirdly you have four holes in the side fins at the bumper edge; this require drilling the inside trim of your bumper and slotting in four screws however, two will do as by then it's held so rigidly on. There is no gap either side, it's the correct width and length unlike some eBay copies.

For those of you interested. I've been Emailing with Dave from ESE, one of the vendors listed on Reiger's website. He was able to get this diffusser up on ESE's site for purchase:

I guess they make their orders with Rieger on Mondays and says to expect about a 2 week delivery time. I've just ordered one now.

OP car looks great! Diffuser definitely makes the rear end look more aggressive!

I'd be in for a GB as well!

My cars Jet black so I hope it looks as good in person as I'd does in the photos

Glad to bring the community's attention to this diffuser

I was dying to get my hands on a nice diffuser for awhile now,the thing just looks so good! A+ on the find!

New21er · 04-22-2013, 01:52 PM

I don't see any mention of the mesh grill on the ESE site?? Is that diy thing?

New21er · 04-22-2013, 01:58 PM

PS, What is it made of?

IancoleTX · 04-22-2013, 02:21 PM

Very cool, looks quite OEM+

Cozy · 04-22-2013, 03:08 PM

Well as far as I know the prototype was made without mesh, it was solid plastic where the mesh you see on mine is BUT on the official Reiger website it is only offered WITH mesh. I think it would be best to talk to your vendor to make sure you know what you're getting. I personally wanted mesh to break up the block of plastic and I think it looks good, especially black mesh so I just ordered what was listed.

It is made from ABS plastic and so far seem durable, it least nearly as much as the bumper anyway but I hope not to impact test it any time soon

.

The more I look at this diffuser the more I like it but it really beefs up the rear, too much for the stock spoiler IMO so I can't wait to a the BMWP one. The car is in for a lot of work this month inc lowering so I think that will really set it off.

More pics to come when I get the car back out and if anyone wants tips on installation I can help. It is pretty easy though, just be accurate with the holes you drill in the side.

I think I`ll help rieger making much money with the introduction of this diffuser on 1addicts!

glad I could help you!

I got the prototype of this diffusor from rieger month ago, which had no mesh.
now they decided to go into production with mesh.

A few extra pics. I've also added this to post #1.

ilikebmxbikes · 04-29-2013, 09:41 PM

Looks great. I like how aggressive it is.

Zombie1 · 04-29-2013, 09:49 PM

Loving the stock rims they look great , and the rear looks great

RimasRS · 04-30-2013, 10:51 AM

I love it...
At last somebody showed something different very nice and more aggressive than performance

Zombie1 · 05-01-2013, 12:58 PM

Super pumped...next and final cosmetic part for the rear of the car is some LCI Black Lines anyone know if the ones from ECS are the same ones as the ones from the factory?

Great looking diffuser and well done car over all. I assume that's the girlfriend/wife in the passenger seat, probably thinking something to the effect of "Hurry up and take your damn pics so we can get outta here."

UPS tracking says I should have mine on Friday!

Cozy · 05-02-2013, 08:43 AM

Thanks for all the positive comments guys, it's rewarding to know the car is appreciated and I am looking forward to seeing everyone else's effort with this diffuser

Thanks for the compliment! I keep meaning to upload some proper pictures of the car but the weather hasn't been in favour lately. I have a good bit of work to do to it this weekend so I'll get up some pics Sunday or Monday. Just bare in mind that I am from the UK so when you hopefully ask where I got my amber-deletes done, you'll be disappointed to know they never had any

.

Haha, not quite the wife, the car fills that spot at the moment but she's really good about my passion for it and supports my hobby.

One aggressive looking rear end on that, hope mine comes out that well when the defusers on and lights

Make sure you share some pics

Mr Kleen · 05-30-2013, 10:55 AM

I'm going to order the single side cutout ($267 shipped to Germany!), how difficult do you think it would be to cut out the other side if I eventually went with a dual exhaust?
