They shouldn't run out any time soon, they are just getting into the E82 market.

Beautiful piece of kit that. In South Africa where I reside anything other than this price range for me would be prohibitive - 30% import duties and shipping won't be cheap either. Basically I'd be working a solid week for this! Tempted but as you've said it will crack easily (due to the location it is somewhat prone to) and for this soft of dough it's probably too much of a risk. Maybe down the line... looks beautiful and congrats!

Once fitted though, it looks great!
Agreed. I was ready to send mine back or sell it the first time I tried to fit it. Even after sanding the tabs. I had to walk away from it the first attempt. Second time around I was able to pop it in with less drama. Guess once my anger subsided I was able to see things a little clearer.
The tabs do need to be addressed though. Comparing the Scopione tabs to the stock tabs you can see how LARGE they are. No way these will fit without trimming. Otherwise the piece is beautiful in place and very subtle on my Jet Black.

Mine fit without trimming...that being said would everyone who mentioned/complained rather have too large and some trimming or too small? I would guess to large..easier to trim than add to....I think that the current setup is the best solution for Scopione, especially given the kick ass price...

I would rather have them be the right size. To answer your question. Whatever price it is.

^^^Problem is dependent on vehicle what might be right size for you might be slightly off for me. So as a company I would err on the side of too large tabs. And for the price you are being a bit nit-picky....if it was 3x the cost (my CF Vorsteiner hood or my 20x$ wheels for example) for under $400 I would be MORE than happy.....

My iCarbon mesh looks way worse than that since it was purchased used. Not really a big deal to me since no one is going to bend over and look super close at your diffuser...

I got my scopione diffuser yesterday, try to fit it last night with out luck, tabs to big, will need to sand them.

From the ones that had done the sanding of the tabs, in which part I should sand the tabs, top or bottom? Own my 2012 135 for only a couple of weeks.

Thanks all.
