Opinions on this e90 diffuser undertray?

I have an e90 and it is slim pickings when it comes to diffusers. Was looking for a diffuser after I got the Akrapovic mufflers installed since they are two separate cans there is a gap in the middle now. Saw this on ebay and was wondering what you guys thought? Was thinking of picking it up next time there is a ebay coupon. Opinions, experience with it?

i didnt realize that FancyWide was based in Russia... I have heard of them before, for some reason i figured they were in the mid west somewhere.

Seems like a cool option for the e90m3, being as there arent many options for us. i think i like the looks of the MateoMotorsports diffuser better, but they do not make one for e90m3 specifically...

Interesting.. I wonder if these would fit along with a Type 2 diffuser... I may have to try this out...

It will fit a top diffuser, almost necessary to get one

I have been eyeing these for a while instead of Varis as I dont see people using them. I'd be in for a GB.

Made of aluminum? Anyone else not so excited about adding weight to the rear?

It's 5kg heavier than the air it's replacing, but it has holes in it to lighten it...so it's got that going for it, which is nice

But if you like the looks it's no worse an idea than the CF parts people stick on the back of these things all the time, I think it looks neat

And really you'd be dumb to buy anything else, I mean:

"PLEASE DONT BUY FAKE - ALL DIFFUSERS WITH ANOTHER SELLERS IS FAKE"

is a pretty compelling argument

Yea probably not ideal but it looks like its only about 10lbs and unless you're building a race car...kind of whatever to me. Especially at 1/3 the price of a Varis replica.

Sorry guys, so the seller got back to me with only 10% discount for 5 buyers and would ship in 1 or 2 boxes which seems like a no go. Lately ebay has been having coupons >10% that are good for anything for one day, so I think I will wait until one of those events to buy one.

The logo is a decal, it peels off easily. Just mounted one on a Z4 this week, very sturdy, well made piece.

So funny. I've been eyeing this on eBay for the past 2 weeks now. Anyone receive one yet to show pics? I didn't even think about installing a regular diffuser to stack. Very interested.

Ordered mine. Will be trying to fit over a challenge diffuser. Pretty sure I'll have to get creative with it.

Install is pretty straight forward, no guesswork, all hardware included.
