Yeah, you're supposed to drill 4 small holes (2 either side) under the bumper at the sides, but with the stock diffuser re-fitted, you'd not see these holes.

Also, you only really need to drill one hole either side. I don't think two is necessary.

My replacement has plastic in place of the mesh, so I'm hoping to get it fitted tomorrow/Saturday depending on weather and I'll throw some pics up.

Yikes! Maybe try to get a few of you together to order them, so they can send them all together to save costs. If they send them seafreight on a pallet it should be much cheaper than that. (Will take a few weeks to arrive though.)

I talked about it a couple of months back when I first fitted my diffuser but I've made a firm choice, I'm getting it wrapped in a different colour.

Black on black for me is just too black; pics to follow in my thread (http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=830074) as soon as it's back .

I'm not sure yet, I have some ideas and an appointment at a vinyl wrapper tomorrow to go through their book. I have a feeling I'll end up buying a whole car wrap .

LOL, thanks, they are not for everyone. I get a lot of mixed comments, but I like them, the mirror caps are color matched. The more I look at the valance the more I like it. It is really growing on me.

So where are you located on LI? I work in Great Neck and live in Baldwin. We need to get a meet up going.

I ordered through ESE who ordered from Germany, then shipped to MyUSA.com in Florida, then shipped to me via Fedex priority to Perth. It should arrive early next week. The freight was expensive - close to $200, but that means it's somewhere over $600 total, which is still a lot better than upwards of $1,000 to buy locally.

I don't mind that cost as it is the diffusor that I really want, I'm not interested in anything carbon fibre.

No doubt. It looks good, isn't that expensive, and apparently has OEM fitment. Too bad they don't make a lip or splitter for the M-Sport front clip.

The product is made very well fitment is great and it's 1/3 the price compared to high end skirts.
