Front Lip + Diffuser Recommendation Needed for M-Sport
I am considering an idea of installing a replica front lip + rear diffuser on my M-sport bumpers and wonder if folks can recommend some good options that would fit in an all-in budget of $750.
I like M Performance, but don't want to pay OEM prices as I drive in Minnesota winters and sometimes have to go through deeper snow, especially at the end of my driveway that I am sure can do some damage. I don't care if it's carbon or painted black, as long as it fits well. |

search is your friend. Many threads on this. To sum it up, you’re rolling the dice with replicas.

RW Carbon is a good option in Southern California. I would recommend drilling and a bracket or some type of support in the front center. The diffuser takes some patience but it works.

I would not install a replica front splitter. There are a lot of aerodynamic forces on that piece and it seems that only the OEM splitter comes with additional mounting hardware. It’s worth the money in my opinion. Overall, $750 seems a bit low for both of the parts you are looking for.

Stay clear from RW.. the carbon weaves will detach and split... quality reflects the price.
