There's now a listing on AliExpress for a reasonably priced rear diffuser available for the X3!
There are two designs, one a fairly subtle one and the other is quite an aggressive looking one, both available in gloss black or carbon fibre, who's going to be the guinea pig this time, after I was on the ACS style corner splitters? Look what I found on AliExpress http://s.aliexpress.com/3QBNz6zU [img]https://i.postimg.cc/R0FpGSMD/93-F9-...FF4-C38292.png[/img] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/FzcBcT9F/B5-BD1...987-BD1-FB.png[/img] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/g24BvXPh/83-CD5...3-B56656-F.png[/img] EDIT: I thought I'd update the OP and make this a more general bodykit/spoilers based thread where we can discuss and share different body mods appearing on the market. Here are some better pics of one of the Diffusers above and a spoiler both available from various eBay sellers in China, a couple of us have already ordered the diffuser (in gloss black) and awaiting delivery: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F192880078929 https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F192880208102 [img]https://i.postimg.cc/d3GCwwXN/08132-...AC20964-A6.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/HkYM1Gt3/238-B2...F920-F21-F.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/sfW7p4XP/79-F05...-CC1429-A8.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/6pMv9HjK/B01497...75687-E2-D.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/DyKs54J9/CB0-B7...9739-B63-C.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/gkqh7c3n/ECD038...5836-C05-A.jpg[/img] Also this kit has been found, but only on a Russian site, so hopefully someone will find these available for worldwide purchase soon: http://www.777-tuning.ru/ru/pages/bmw/x3f25/line [img]https://i.postimg.cc/j2222KL4/857-CD...AA7-F543-B.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/6QVy1Ykn/E29-CC...E42-BF3-EA.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/5ypxwrFN/80-C12...6-C9681318.jpg[/img] I, and a couple of other members already have the AC Schnitzer style front corner splitters: https://www.ebay.com/itm/x3-abs-Fron...YAAOSwj81br0W- [img]https://i.postimg.cc/BnmMdB2L/76-AAC...5359-D8-A7.jpg[/img] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/zf305Hkd/0-AB74...79890-B9-F.jpg[/img] Carbon Fibre replacement style door mirror covers now available: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/cW5hpD44 [img]https://i.postimg.cc/7b8FZ4Y4/B58-E6...3-D0-F6701.jpg[/img] Please share with us any other bits or links you find!

Everyone gets aftermarket M Performance kit from China, and most of it is great! Where do you think most of the stuff in your house was made!? |

Well.....yes. IF the OP had to choose one...I'd do the first pic one. Definitely not the second one. I personally like the stock look....

I like the older F series from Japan because they replace the entire piece. This almost looks like it goes over top of the original with 3M tape again . Not cool.

I really wasn’t expecting this much hate for the top one, maybe I’ll give it a miss then! |

I am actually tempted. The design is a bit busier than I’d like, but they are close up photos from a low angle, so from normal viewing height/distance I think it could work.
Plus the gloss black would look so much better than whatever grey the standard one is! |

if it was a choice of the 2 i prefer the top one. It gives the car a much more lower profile and i like the way it cocoons the exhausts, although the gloss black might look a bit out of place against the grey/charcoal existing diffuser. carbon effect might look better but i find a hydro dipped carbon pieces can look cheap/fake when seen up close.
