Default Rear diffuser

There are now a few more options for rear diffusers. Has anyone installed the carbon fiber one piece that is available on ebay for mid $500ish? Would love to see it on a car and not rely on the vendor pics. Price seems very reasonable.

Probably would help to link the eBay piece so members know what you are looking at or at least post a picture of it.

I just ordered this one in gloss black. I MIGHT have it painted Carbon Flash Metallic when it arrives...I'll make that decision when I test fit it.

Would love to see real world installations as well!

Just finished an AGM. Not cheap, but I like it.

Just had an eBay rear diffuser painted in carbon flash metallic to match the rest of the trim and installed it. I’ve got just a little over $400 in the part and body shop paint:

I went with this one because there was a coupon code…they seem to be out of stock at the moment though. LOTS of companies selling same thing on eBay in a few different finishes like glass black (what I bought), flat black, & carbon fiber. I opted for gloss black thinking I MIGHT be ok with it, but once I test fitted it, knew I had to have it painted to match. Body shop charged me $205 to paint it…I didn’t find any already painted in carbon flash metallic.

…there was a coupon code available at the time of my purchase…
