Hi all, some numpty has reversed into the back of my SG CSL and their towbar (i'm guessing) has damaged the bumper (minor) and cracked the carbon diffuser :bigcry:

Wheres the best place to buy a replacement diffuser?

Usually i'd go OEM but i've heard stories that BMW take forever to supply these?

Has anyone used an aftermarket one like CarboProject? Whats the quality like and is it indistinguishable from the original??

Thanks for your advice ;)

Hi Mate

I have the full carbon diffuser on mine as the std one was on back order was 4/5 months and then never turned up.

Got mine from thorney motorsport , cheaper then the original too, fits perfect and is the proper carbon weave:thumbs:
