    I searched online and there are a couple options. I lost a fin on my oem diffuser and was thinking of just getting the cf one. My cars Gregor silverstone so was not sure if I would prefer oem. What are you guys thoughts. Anyone have a cf diffuser. I found some cheaper ones on eBay for about 1100 shipped.

    I think it was even mentioned that removing/replacing the Carbonio ones is doable and not all too complex (for example, if you happen to scrape it/break it).

    Yes R&R’d it by myself, the OEM diffuser is a lot heavier than the Carbonio carbon fiber piece.

    Got mine from exotic car gear. Nice piece. They were the least expensive for real carbon. Can’t trust eBay on a part like that.

    Perhaps we can ask exotic car gear and Carbonio if they're willing to offer us a group buy.

    I'm thinking about getting the diffuser and the air boxes. The Carbonio page has been up on my computer for weeks!

    If anyone else is interested on carbon fiber rear diffuser kindly post here and let us know.
    I am willing to take the time & send Exotic Care and Carbonio a PM to see if they are willing to give us a special price for a group buy.

    Hi everyone and thank you for the interest. As a policy we do not do group buys. They are time consuming, require someone to manage them, and delay customers from getting their product. We do our best to offer high quality parts and service and focus on holding stock so that all of our customers can get their parts fast rather than have to wait for them.

    That said we do offer a discount to F-Chatters and all you need to do is send us an email or PM for the direct discount code for our online store. We do not publish the discount code online because it is for registered F-Chatters only and not for those trolling Google for a deal. We feel this is the best way to support the F-chat community and it has worked well over the years.

    Lastly for those wanting a very deep discount we occasionally have some items with blemishes that we sell at a significant savings. Customers are sent detailed photos and pricing and are left to decide if they want the item or not. Blemishes are generally strictly cosmetic but require that parts are sold as is without any warranty or authentication holograms. In the case of the F430 rear diffuser it is a very large part that is extremely expensive to manufacture and ship leaving very little margin for significant discounts. That said we pride ourselves on our quality and in no way compare ourselves with cheap offshore offerings available on eBay.

    Anyone interested is welcome to PM us for a discount code.

    I agree and it makes sense.

    Thanks for chiming in.

    Fyi to members I have the Carbonio Carbon Fiber shift paddles and I'm 1,000% happy. It's completely plug and play and build quality is outstanding.

    Damn that diffuser looks close to the ground. I have seen carbon fiber fins that look like they screw in to the stock diffuser that look pretty good. Anyone gen this route?

    Yes,
    my car is lowered...the diffuser is 3" off the ground. I scrape all the time.....I can repair it when the time comes.
    It's waaaay lighter than stock. I can literally can hold it up with my middle finger.

    I just purchased the exotic car gear diffuser. Will post some pics when it comes in.

    Supposedly they only have 1 or 2 left in stock before there is a long wait.

    Anthony! Great to hear from you! Long time no hear no see!
    I still Moderate at the M5board from time to time.

    I hope you and your family are doing well as well.
