Maybe ill end up doing CF Spoiler, CF Grills & CF Diffuser, to keep the CF theme

I can tell you that the shadowline paint that Gravity uses is EXACTLY the same color tone as the BMW shadowline. THe diffuser is simple to install, took me about 10-15 minutes if even that to install.

I dont think the shadowline diffuser would look good by itself, but I got my wheels spoiler mirror caps and diffuser all at the same time. I have a hard time keeping my eyes off my sexy car

But your spoiler is CF not shadowline right?

I would really like to see some pictures if you do decide to go the full CF route. Like I said I really am not a big fan of CF but the spoiler looks amazing, I'm sure the diffuser mirror caps and grills to go along with it wouldn't look bad at all.

Short Term Memory Loss?

I just ordered a shadowline diffuser from gravity auto, now I just need to wait for my car to come in...

Thats pretty hardcore, ordering parts before the car gets in...props to you, I considered it but then I decided to wait

Thanks for the pic. I was all set to get the shadowline diffuser until your post. It does work well with the spoiler you have, but I agree alone it may be a bit too loud, at least for my taste.

Now I'm thinking to have it shot so it's the same shade as the stock exhaust tips.

Plan B is to shoot it in LMB paint.

Either way the stock grey diffuser is a goner ASAP. Wonder why they didn't just go with matte black to begin with. The gray just looks odd imo.

It's all mental though until the car is redelivered.

Im with you on that one, I always though the stock diffuser made the car look cheap since it was just a plastic insert, no color to it.
