First mess up, received rear diffuser in gloss black plastic not carbon fiber, seller said it's a mistake and they are sending out carbon fiber so let's see what happens!

Ya What's good is Ali express will refund you if anything isn't right or as advertised the only thing that sucks is you have to wait a month or 2 to figure it out. However the price is amazing

You might be able to hydro etch a carbon fiber look on that diffuser.
It will still work about the same.

Does that mean you have to wait for another 2 months?

Just make sure you don't hit the order received button until everything is sorted. Once you select that you only had 10 days to raise a case.

Also, I've pretty much never had luck dealing directly with sellers when it comes to faults, they've just tried to BS and further scam me. Just escalate it straight to Ali.

Hope not, I already started receiving stuff. So far I got the carbon fiber mirror caps, front carbon fiber grill, Rear deck spoiler, carbon fiber/titanium exhaust tips, and side skirts. Everything else I'm waiting to clear customs.

Only had a chance to put on the grill, mirror caps, and tips but hopefully tomorrow Ill have some time to do deck spoiler

There's a whole thread on these products, I posted a review on these products here: https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...240686&page=33

I for one ordered a whole kit off Aliexpress as well, couple fitment problems that they quickly fixed within a week. Shipping took 5 days by DHL, much cheaper than any US reseller. Same quality assurance, probably would've taken the same time to get it shipped from US to Canada anyways.

Looking great. My 3D design rear diffuser is 2 of those kits from ali express. To me i just want everything authentic and not a replica. However for the price it looks great. Just make sure fitment works.
