It's shipped but may not be here for another month. I have the OEM trailer hitch. My game plan is to see how it fits without cutting anything. I'll end up having to cut the center, only if it clears the fin design. As for the trailer electrical connection, I may end up fabricating something to mount it underneath. If I can't do anything with the diffuser, ill sell it and just carbon fiber hydro dip the stock OEM trailer hitch difuser instead.

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

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:

Also this kit has been found, but only on a Russian site, so hopefully someone will find these available for worldwide purchase soon:

Please share with us any other bits or links you find!

The Schnitzer style corner splitters look great. But I would opt for it in the same colour as the car

If the stock one was gloss black then I’d be happy enough with it, but I just can’t understand why they paint it that grey colour that doesn’t match any of the other trim! Imo that is a stranger design than these aftermarket diffusers!

Agreed! Hate that grey diffuser

That looks amazing. Will definitely consider spraying it black

Thank you! I think it's really a must for Dark Graphite/Sophisto Gray folks, as otherwise the gray diffuser really blends in. I actually didn't have it painted, I had a local vinyl/tint shop that tinted my windows and wrapped my mirrors, boomerangs and side grilles, wrap the diffuser section as well.

Hello, I have found another diffuser is from the Larte desing brand and Manhart also has it, it does not look bad the truth that you think

The price appears to be substantially more now though...

Hi Chicagofan00, have you fitted this yet? Does it have the same issues as the ones previously mentioned in this form (parking sensor issues)?

Thanks,
Josh

Yes, I was one of the first few on the forums to install this and it does have the parking sensor issues. No clue if they have fixed the fitment at all but my assumption would be they haven't.

Doesn't hurt to give it a try though. Someone in this thread also fixed the fitment issue and the parking sensors no longer been incessantly for them from what I understand.

So the diffuser I originally ordered was held up in customs and returned to the seller. I received a refund from the company. I ended up ordering from IND-Distribution the 3D Design carbon fiber rear diffuser. I will be modifying the diffuser to fit over the oem trailer hitch. More than likely will need to be cut. Should have it by 2-3 weeks.

Which diffuser did you originally order? You may be the first one here to install the 3D one. I'm curious to see how it works out with the hitch, but also could you let us know how it affects your sensors?

Looking forward for seeing the photos of the 3D design one.

I ordered a "Fake" carbon fiber version of the one most have here. https://www.amazon.com/MCARCAR-KIT-D.../dp/B07QB7GS1G I wasn't too thrilled on dealing with the parking sensor and fitment issues. It wasn't a lot of money to be the 1st to cut into it and test it over the OEM trailer hitch. Now, I must make sure 1000000% before cutting into carbon fiber. The 3D Design rear diffuser is 100% with fit and finish. There is someone in Japan that has it and swears there are zero issues with the parking sensors. When I asked IND, I would technically be the 2nd person to order one, I have yet to see anyone in the states with it.. So I'm pretty sure I'm the 1st to have it in the states.

Same here! I've seen a few photos on the facebook G01 group, and it really looks fantastic! I'd hate to cut into it, but it MAY just clear the trailer hitch without the hitch black center cover on. The diffuser bumps out a bit compared to the stock one.

Well lockdown boredom has made me finally order the diffuser!

In stock from UK, and only £160 now so I thought feck it!

I like that diffuser. As you know I ordered my front splitter from there. The quality of the splitter is brilliant, so hope the diffuser is the same.

Let us know how you get in fitting it and if you have similar challenges with the parking sensors that people have had with rear diffusers. I think I am going to order it too in a month or so.
