My experience with eBay Hartge Diffuser.

I wish this guy would've posted a shot of the undercarriage of the car, so we could see how the exhaust was routed....

The Hartge replica would seem to be gone from eBay, weird. It was doing well I thought.

But you can see 1M or how Hartge exhaust looks on 135i so pipe routing is the same.

what's the link to your Facebook group?

Sorry it will sound weird but I don't have facebook account. I will PM you my e-mail.

You can't buy the replica diffuser from eBay anymore... Hartge also stopped making the real diffuser as well

Hartge can sell you but only in conjuction with their exhaust.

No, Hartge don't make it anymore, the product is discontinued. I checked with Germany HQ as well as Australian and US reps.

Tab135 · 03-19-2014, 06:42 AM

You can buy a diffuser only IF you have damaged one.

Knightelf · 03-19-2014, 06:06 PM

^I asked them that question as well lol. They (HARTGE) have no diffusers in stock and are not making any more, so if you damage the diffuser you're sht out of luck!!

RimasRS · 03-20-2014, 02:12 AM

I have OEM Performance diffuser, but I wanted something more aggresive quad. This one is also an option but I think with this one there will be less space behind it to make second pipe. But please share the result..

This one is the same style as what the OP posted....that's why I wish he would post an undercarriage shot of his car

Knightelf · 03-26-2014, 06:11 PM

I haven't yet received the diffuser, only bought it last week.

I am going to the same guy that custom made the OP's quads, so it should fit fine since the diffuser has the same "M3 style" setup. Will keep you all posted.

Very keen to see how your fitment ends up knightelf. Looking forward to seeing the Rob Bliss exhaust too. Add some videos when you get it done.

I'm getting the exhaust fabricated & fitted this Friday, watch this space
