More aggressive diffusers that don't interfere w/ comfort access?

Hey Buds –

I bought my F80 with a relatively aggressive 3 piece carbon rear diffuser. It looks great, but the center louvered section, being the largest part, is a tad flappy and definitely obstructs the comfort access "kick" function.

In the past, i haven't really cared about this a whole lot, but since i'll be making this into a wagon and will absolutely use the hatch with full hands from time to time, i've gotta make a change.

Anyone out there with anything from a PSM to RW to Vorsteiner have consistent luck with the comfort access kick?

Thanks in advance!

Nope! But I've definitely had my vorsteiner randomly open my trunk in the middle of a windy night several times.

I personally love mine, I purchased it from AA Concepts in pasadena, CA. Great Quality and great price. Only “downfall” is that i scrape the shit out of it everywhere i go, but that’s on me haha. Other than that, great diffuser

nice diffuser bro i was torn between yours and OP's before i settled for the one like OP's. Your diffuser might go well with the rear cf splitters
