Performance 335 Diffuser Colour
Afternoon guys.
Just after a few opinions please doing an exhaust conversion on my alpine white e91 and I've just received my performance diffuser for it, The question is do I keep it black / paint it anthracite like my current sport plus diffuser.. Or paint it alpine white to match the car ?? Here are some pictures.. All opinions welcomed please |

Waiting on a few more opinions as I'm finding it very hard myself to decide |

As always photos don't convey how good this looks in real life. I constantly find myself stopping and looking at the rear of the car now. Best mod I've ever done! |

I've seen one in the flesh yes but only one, it was body coloured and looked good just don't know what would look better the white or a stealthy dark colour I don't know if body coloured looks aftermarket if you catch my drift?

100% go bodycolour on the difusser Shorty, as Calluhan's stated opinions will be split on this but to my eyes looks more the part being body coloured and it looks factory too like this M4 we had in the other day Last edited by old grey steve; 03-29-2016 at 02:36 PM.. |

Yes it's 99% white from the people I've asked!

Has anyone got a link to where I can buy one of these diffusers that are not made from fibreglass? Been searching all over and can't source them

I bought mine from:
http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-E92-E93-...=1365305188005 It's an ABS plastic part. Very good quality and an excellent fit. It required zero fettling to fit, simply clipped and bolted in place of the old diffuser. I primed and painted it myself. |

Well think I've decided on alpine white eventually!
Another thing to mention, the two plastic trims from either end to cover some holes aren't included and I just got the price through at £74 for these alone!! Not a chance I was paying that so back to the drawing board and making something up to fit, I've attached a picture of the trim I'm talking about its designed to sit in the area and cover the holes |
