Cheaper CF alternatives?

chadism · 03-08-2020, 06:07 PM

Any ideas for cheaper CF kits? Would like a lip and diffuser, just not into paying the money for RW or 3D solutions as I have an uncanny ability to smash those pieces as soon as I put them on. I've looked at Ebay and AliExpress for the chinese and taiwanese stuff but it's too sketchy. Any comments would be appreciated.

He bought those pieces from a seller on Aliexpress (Eurocar Auto Parts) and said fitment was good: https://www.aliexpress.com/store/gro...62eb41b9M0uYlv

Pricing seems decent but shipping cost is extremely high.

If I told you that alot of things that's,'reputable ' comes from Aliexpress.com / Alibaba / Dhgate / made in china / wish.com , just to name a few, would you believe me? It all comes from that region of the world any way. Give it a shot.

how are the fitment on cf parts from ali Express? that say they got a 15 money back. also if the product arrives after the promised time period. I'm more concerned on the quality and fitment of their product.

This might be a stupid question but would an f86 kit (3D lip, side skirt and diffuser) fit an f85? It's significantly cheaper than the f85 option they have listed

I believe the lip is the same , not sure of everything else.

The listings on eBay for splitter, diffuser and side skirt extensions all list F85 and F86.
