I wonder if the members who posted in here are solely responsible for selling them out of their diffusers, lol.


Someone should try getting this company to post on the forums.

^^^No not until we see pics and I can order mine Don't want to flood the market yet...LOL

[Kamal]

shh let's all keep this a secret until the quality is confirmed and all of us in this thread that are waiting can lock in the promo price...

quick question to those of you stateside that have ordered.. how much has shipping cost for the diffuser?

On par with what? Hopefully not Icarbon, their quality SUCKS

Why? That's on par with what people are paying for aftermarket diffusers for the 335.

What dosent add up is the absolute garbage Icarbon is pedaling for $600+

I'm going to have to battle it out with the wife to let me spend the $$ if this pans out to be a worthy diffuser.

It looks like we can lock in the promo aslong as we "pre-order" before they recieve a new batch in 4-6 weeks. So those who bought it... please write a review and post pics ASAP so that all of us can get our pre-orders in before then. I might even order without pics since its a good deal but I'd like to see pics if I could.

Hopefully the next batch doesn't turn into a longer than 4-6 week wait. That would suck.

I hope other companies are paying attention. If they can get a CF Diffuser priced at 350$ like these guys then they would have a 20+ person group buy if not more.

[Focusedintntions]

I've been saying that since the beginning!!

[cooler2442]

Yup front lip to. So someone go get it done. I don't care. Go copy iCarbon's or 3D's front lip and sell it for 400ish and you will get a 20person group buy easy. Same with this type of diffuser either the BMW Performance one like this one or like the iCarbon one with an extra fin in the middle.

Not on par with what others are selling them for. I understand they are cheaper for the 3-series, but then again, everyone and their mother has a 3-series. It is all economics.

Not true. Do you even know how difficult it is to make parts out of carbon fiber?!? Ever done it? I don't think so. You really shouldn't libel a company's products on a public forum. I understand they have had issues and that their customer service is not the best, but then again, you don't have to buy product from them, and if you do you have to understand you are buying a part made of carbon fiber. There are going to be inconsistencies and they may not all be exactly alike. They are hand made, which is part of the reason the price is so high.

I am in contact with someone else on ebay where I purchased Carbon Fiber grills / eyelids and he said he will go to his factory to check if he has moulds for this type of diffuser and some type of E82 front lip.

If he does have moulds then I will make him post the diffuser / front lip on ebay and create a thread with a link to it.

Hope he does.

[Sylon]

Did anyone buy the front splitters? I really want to see how those look on the car.

I believe one person did, but I have seen front splitters on our car and it didn't look as good as a full front lip.

Here is the same thing but a front lip style one

http://www.bocadesign.de/details.php...5&cid=2&sid=23

I like the full front lip more.

[Sylon]

^^^Those splitters look different then the ones on the website in the OP.


Also, that lip is actually the never-released Vorsteiner lip. The pics are even of the car it was modeled on.

[AWD2RWD]

Ya all those parts that company makes are pic sof other companies pieces... wtf? They say DRY carbon professionals, do they just copy other molds and do it in dry carbon? Can you even order from them they have no prices or no data.

Those splitters look A LOT different, and far worse IMHO, than the Scopione ones.

I have their "product" and the finish, fit and quality are all sub par. I've purchased diffusers before including a custom made one and all were far better quality and at a fraction of the price.

Unfortunately either many of the people on 1 addicts are new to modding and have no base line for quality / cost or parts quality went way down when I got it, but the Icarbon hype is overrated.

And as for inconsistencies, they should still have some kind of internal standard to meet, or do they just box it up and sell it regardless?

In any case, if this diffuser ends up working out I'll be selling my Icarbon one.
