Not too difficult providing you use a Dremel with the right blade. I'd probably be more inclined to just sell your single exit diffuser when the time comes and pay the difference for the dual exit version. These diffusers are popular, people will pay a good price second hand.

I took the plunge and decided to colour change the diffuser. It's gone from a Matt Black now to a satin/gloss charcoal grey.

The paint is still curing so it won't be fitted for a few days until I return from a trip but, I really like the way it has come out and it should look great against BSM paint and carbon fibre bits.

Was going to attempt a 1M front end......... No one wanted to fuse side skirts for me and couldn't afford to weld the rear 1m 1/4...

So I just purchased a Rieger 1M Front bumper, Rieger front lip, BMW performance side skirts, and Rieger rear diffuser.

All will be painted Alpine white with gloss black accents.


Has anyone pulled the front fenders/bumper on a 135i? I have bad rub that has lead to metal work on the front 1/4s.... I run a 18x8.5 et66 with 245/40/18 on the front. For now I am going to raise up the KWv1's to prevent damage on new bumper.

40 profile seems too tall for the front, you're much better off going 245/35

I contacted ESE about this exact same thing about a week ago and they told me that it just isn't made anymore like that. It's unfortunate though, I love it without the mesh but dislike it it with. The one used in all the official Rieger pictures is excellent. I'd order it today like that if I could.

Unless we can just put something behind instead of the mesh. Just a thought.

Yeah, if I end up getting one I'll be trying a few different things... just don't want it to look all janky.
