Any modifications youd like to see?

That's awesome! Link? I assume you had to drill some holes to make it fit. Any cutting involved?

Understand ground clearance is possibly an issue, but might be worth it to put it on when you know you're going to track.

You're talking about diffusers, what good will only a diffuser do? I say have someone make a full flat underbody. :P

In all seriousness there's not much here to add that hasn't been said already. A brake duct kit that you don't have to reduce the max steering angle in order to fit would be something i'd definitely be interested in though...

Yup that looks pretty damn good for a hundo!

wonder if it is this one?

THAT's THE ONE! They are probably gonna get a bunch of orders out of the blue...lol.

It was a pretty easy install, no trimming needed. I'll take a pic of the underside later if you guys want.

Haha. Yeah, please do. Take one of the side as well--- I wonder if the fins are parallel to the ground. They look like they slant down a little.

Also, did you have to replace the stock plastic diffuser?

The fins are not parallel to the ground. I'm still debating if I should pull out the grinder to level them out and gain some ground clearance. If I have the time I might also remake the channeling lost when replacing the stock diffuser and add some material to the ends for more coverage and mounting points. The diffuser is still a work in progress for me but it can be mounted/used as is.

Requested pics to come later.

hmm, so it blocks the stock diffuser's channels?

Has anyone ever attempted ordering from BMW Motorsport?

Now, THAT's a diffuser.

The stock diffuser is off the car now and the new one doesn't have the channels since it's universal. Air still runs by the LSD fins but rather than being caught by the stock diffuser's channels and pushed underneath the diffuser the air goes over the diffuser and through the honeycomb grill. Not quite as efficient as the stock one

no time to jack up the car so these are the best i have at the moment. the front of the the diffuser does not reach the forward most original mounting points so i ended up drilling some holes and tucking the diffuser between the body and rear axle tension struts (rear jack point).

in the last picture you can see where 2 of the original mounting locations are blocked by the fins. i ended up mounting in the middle instead of shaving part of the fin away.
