G30 Gloss Black Rear Diffuser - Advice
I'm looking at getting a M Performance style rear diffuser in gloss black.
I have found one and seems decent enough. I was going to buy it from Amazon as the manufacturer (STM) sells it on there. I've seen it on eBay too but more expensive - but I've just come across a site selling it for £67.58. My initial reaction was too good to be true... £168.95: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/...KJLZG46M&psc=1 £174.95: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-G30-G...75.c101224.m-1 £67.58: https://www.gabhcon.com/index.php?ma...ducts_id=17379 Has anyone heard of this company? Can't find much reviews on them etc. Thanks in advance.

I would personally stay away from that last company.
No address listed and very little information. With some of the OEM parts, if they don't fit correctly and you aren't happy, it looks like it might be a pain to return. Amazon and eBay will be much easier. My Gloss Black rear diffuser might be going up for sale - its only 2 months old but I've just bought a M performance exhaust and I'm not sure it will fit. https://vi.raptor.ebaydesc.com/ws/eB...=3150265588006 |

Nope - its OEM.
The fitment is good, but not as good as the original. It took me several attempts to get it so that I was happy with the fit. There is a slight gap at each edge where it connects with the bumper. When I say slight gap, its about 1-2mm, and you have to get up really close too see it, but I knew it was there. |

Supposed I could always get your one and then get it sprayed in gloss black.

Gloss Black Rear Diffuser Install (G30 540i M-Sport) https://g30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1757747
I just installed this gloss black diffuser yesterday, it was $180 USD from eBay. I'd reckon getting an ABS plastic one like this from eBay is your best bet. Let me know if you have any questions |
