Z4M Rear diffuser

Diokaef · 01-26-2011, 08:02 PM

So we are developing a rear diffuser for the Z, it's made of CF and kevlar.

I will have pictures of it in two weeks.

How many should I make? any serious interest on this please post, It will be fully functional and it's being made by Challenge USA, I should had posted this before but I wanted to confirm it first.

This is the first sketching of it when we started, it will be made in two pieces, one top and one bottom.

The bottom will be fully functional extending almost to the rear axle.
The top part will be for cosmetic purpose only.

I may be interested. Price is obviously the biggest factor. I've got some scratches on mine from the previous owner. I've received a couple of quotes to repair it and I'm looking at around $500. If I can get a custom rear bumper for a little more, I might just do that instead.

Interested, but need to see a prototype mounted first.

Diokaef · 01-26-2011, 08:17 PM

We are working on rendering this, should take a few days.

VinnieAces · 01-26-2011, 08:22 PM

crfine88 · 01-26-2011, 08:35 PM

inTgr8r · 01-26-2011, 08:58 PM

....Interested, but depends on design & price point.

Also, depends on what Challenge does in the other thread for rear a duck tail.

Diokaef · 01-26-2011, 09:00 PM

This give the idea of our top and bottom piece concept

dorifto88 · 01-26-2011, 09:02 PM

in like flinn... hope to see prices <500 American dollars...

to recalrify. this "diffuser" will be able to "bolt onto" the existing rear bumper with minimal "modification" yes?

No modification needed on the Z4M bumper and some good modifications for non-M bumpers

Excellent!

More interested now.

dorifto88 · 01-26-2011, 09:11 PM

Diokaef, do you have a general idea of where the price point will be?

Diokaef · 01-26-2011, 09:13 PM

I will have prices Jan 31, so I will post here at night on that day, it will be a one of a kind piece, the two piece concept will allow people to buy it separately what will get more easy to digest the cost.

Diokaef · 01-26-2011, 09:14 PM

The underbody tray is on development as well.

honestly it looks super slick, and at the same time probably beyond my financial reach lol. the two piece option does sound easier to digest in the long run though... irregardless, cannot wait to hear the word on pricing and to see the final results !

Diokaef · 01-26-2011, 09:21 PM

It will be CF exposed not painted and the bottom part it will be Black due to cost.

In a GB it will be better.

Diokaef · 01-26-2011, 10:55 PM

I need at list 15 interested for a GB, this will be made for me so does not have anything to do with the front splitter or ducktail, It will not be sold by Challenge USA.
