Ordered 3 items from JC Sportline via AliExpress

M4 CS-Style Carbon Fiber Trunk Lip - due to arrive 11/15

Carbon Fiber Rear Bumper Splitters - due to arrive 11/05

Carbon Fiber Upper Splitters - due to arrive 11/05

Will report back with results, hopefully fitment of the splitters won't be an issue with XPEL.

They just cover the lower splitter portion of the stock bumper, they don't sit lower or anything. I have them from the same vendor, Bayson R Motorsports, and the fitment is perfect.


Mind noting how much you paid for these? I clicked the link you originally supplied and they say $1.1k on eBay?

I think it was $150 or $160? I pulled up their website and they're sold out so maybe that's why they're listed that high now? I'd suggest shooting them a message on ebay.

Oh yeah, they're pretty good. But they overcharge their stuff (imported from china) pretty heavily. You can get stuff off ebay and aliexpress for like half the price but same quality

Same issue I had with his CS front lip, hollow, warped, didn't fit right and to top it off it was about twice as thick as the one I have now.

Ordered bulbxpert new style rear diffuser.. believe its an m perf replica - just deeper fins for a more aggressive look.
Everything lined up and clicked right into place. There is no noticeable sag that I can see, guys take a look for yourselves.

https://ebay.us/IRFDs4

$280 shipped im very happy.

Have gone through 3 different replica diffusers now and this has been the most painless to install and IMO has the best fitment.



Installed:

I have the same one, the bigger fins really make it stand out a bit more than the stock M perf style.

I returned it. Didn't fit well.

Not yet. I think I will just get an OEM one or like a IND one.

Thats why I bought it. Had a local guy selling an m perf for $500 and decided on this instead. Got tired of my V style. Truly an amazing and quality "ebay" part. Was surprised at how nice the material was and wasnt falling apart.

For those who got the sideskirts in this thread - do they cover the jack block areas and require trimming, or are the jack points not affected?

Not affected. I still haven't had a chance to install mine but test fitting confirmed it
