My weave was stretched, the center indentation where they put that tacky metal plate was crooked, one edge was partially rounded instead of being sharp, and the ends/edges of some fins were just solid resin without CF. The first piece I had was worse and I shipped it back on my dime the second one is here. Ill try to take pics and post. I am detail oriented and picky though. Oh ya and my bumper is damaged from the repeated necessity of having to pop it back in every 5 miles. Also all the white spots you see in my pics are flaws in their finish.

Ill attach the pics I have in my phone

Look at the variation in gap

[Papethova]

See that white spot... its the edge having a soft radius, the rest of it is a sharp edged. You can see the fitment gaps here too and thi is the 1st diffuser in this pic

[Papethova]

Here is their lack of response to my issue. LOOK at the waviness in the weave of the carbon. THAT is BAD work!!! The CF around the fins is totally stretched and skewed. Ill get pics of that when I get to the house where the part is stored. Those white spots are defects in their finish.

This BTW is the second replacement diffuser. At this point I had been told the mold would be redone and I would get a third replacement. STILL WAITING FOR THAT THIRD PIECE!!

[Papethova]

Thats the heat shield I can see through the gap. The weave on this side is much nicer. Not wavy, but like i said the fins are totally stretched.

[OrangeCrush]

That is ugly!

[Zuzu]

Ok.. Mine is 100% better quality than what you where supplied.

Although not entirely happy with the fit, its still a very neat fit.. Might still remove and file down connecting tabs for a tighter fit.

I can see your heat shield and your pic isnt even up close like mine was.

So now bad fitment is my 2 diffusers, 1 in florida and this one in Australia... plus look at his fins the weave to me looks all skewed and stretched. Mine cost $500, Florida piece was free, I hope he didnt pay full price for this.

This needs its own thread

[Zuzu]

Fair enough mate.
You have a sharp eye, I can understand you are pissed off to date.

And No, I didn't pay full price..

End of my posts on this subject and sorry for the thread Jack .

[Papethova]

Id be pissed if I was you too look at that weave, especially that far left yellow circle!!

yah that mode carbon is fucking horrible

[7smurfs]

Wow you guys have one hell of a sharp eye. Did not notice any of that detail in the weave for Zuzu's car... though then again I wouldn't be bothered too much if it was on my 135i but 1M.......
