Has anyone received their carbon fiber rear diffuser???

WAY · 06-01-2008, 09:58 PM

Yeah but Kris, shipping is $300-400??? Isn't it the same in the end?

professor · 06-01-2008, 10:02 PM

please check this. shipping costs and insurance costs are, for some inexplicable reason, added to the cost of the article for customs assessment!

Kris · 06-01-2008, 10:05 PM

Interesting.. if that's the case professor it may not be worth it.. As much as I love it, I wont be paying $1900 AUD for it.

Zuzu · 06-01-2008, 10:06 PM

Kris... we could be back to the local manufacturing if the cost are to be that high..

Zuzu · 06-01-2008, 10:06 PM

And no shipping fees...I think they r at Penrith

professor · 06-01-2008, 10:07 PM

andrew@southernBM · 06-01-2008, 10:10 PM

I am happy to quote a GB price is there is interest

Kris · 06-01-2008, 10:18 PM

I'm interested in interior CF bits.. I would want to offload my current Cube Alu which I'm sure I can do on ebay..

Joe; agree, but given the bar is different I think id rather have the genuine one. There would always be small differences. If it was a straight remake, then sure! id go aftermarket..

Unless you can drop $300-400 I don't think there would be interest by the sound of it!

Unless someone else in Sydney has the original and is willing to lent it to us, how is that guy going to replicate it? It's different to what is already on your car...

Kris · 06-01-2008, 10:31 PM

Yep, but he'd replicate the one we have which doesn't have the same shape/fins/holes as the BMW Performance one...

Wayne he would replicate the original standard diffuser for the fit and then add on the bits we want as in the CF external shape..

He just needs the original for the bolt on template and dimmensions.

As would I providing the price is reasonable...

Kris · 06-02-2008, 06:00 PM

Sounds good, but id want the BMW performance one look-alike...

Shocker · 06-02-2008, 06:32 PM

Just seems like too much for some carbon fibre. It prolly has a huge markup, because of the popularity of them on other cars.
