Does this mean slek has plans to make a diffuser? I just purchased an exhaust for my car and will be purchasing a diffuser as well but if slek is making one I might hold off a bit and see. Please confirm with me cuz I'm looking to buy one in the next few months.

Thanks

iCarbon. They don't make them with the 3 fins any more. You would have to buy a used one.

Lol not my fault they have the best looking 135i diffuser. If SLeK made one I'd definitely buy theirs though.

well icarbon has fell off the grid...every retailer in the US doesn't carry their product anymore. I found one but it is in Europe because i have been searching extensively for about the past 4 months to find a quad icarbon diffuser

iCarbon may be the past, but I still really like the 3 fins on the diffuser. I recently bought a new one shipped from Europe and just in case anyone's interested, I bought it from Michael Feld at www.icarbon-parts.de.

Yeah thats the same guy im talking to...how long did it take for it to ship after you did a bank transfer and sent him the verification? And was the diffuser packaged well so there wont be any damage?

It took about 2 weeks in total after making the payment and the packaging was amazing. I was unsure about the packaging at first as well, but he sent me pictures of the packaging he did for me, which was reassuring. The diffuser was tightly secured and it arrived nice and undamaged.

Also, I sent the payment through Paypal and he gave me updates for the shipping status with photos by email.

Isn't one of his tires mounted wrong in this picture?
Those are asymetrical tires... they should come in L and R. Looks like he bought 4 of the same kind.

No its just the design of these tires....when mounted properly they look like that.

Kinda...its from the same guy but you would need to either do a bank transfer or paypal transfer because his site only works for european purchases. But he is very good at answering emails and questions with the big time difference.

They have come out with the power dome hood already. Vents may be an option in the future but not currently.

Okay. Yah I meant to add power-done with vents.

I'm assuming they could easily use the other mold and just add vents to cut that time in half?

And with anything like this do you think a list of 5 or so people with down payments could speed up the process?

I've actually talked to them about that and just simply cutting vents into it wouldn't be a good option they told me. It would take to long to make sure that each vent was perfect. They said a new mold would have to be created for the vents to happen.

They are currently busy working on that CRT 1M front lip but I think if you did get 5-10ppl with a down payment they would be more willing to make a brand new mold for the vents. I will ask.
