I mentioned already that the seller had discontinued the item, so no actual link available

What is with the instructions to not cover the "holes" on the mounting side with 3M tape? For ventilation purposes?? Aren't the holes a byproduct of the CF manufacturing process?

sorry bit off topic could someone link me to a rear diffuser? I have a f83 too.

This isnt real CF but ABS plastic covered with some layers of CF and high gloss finish. The holes are from manufacturing, when the raw hot block came into the form and got blown into it to the final shape. I hadnt got this info when receiving my spoiler and I wouldnt assume that the material is working as much as covered holes would affect the structure.

Fat Goose · 08-26-2021, 09:30 PM

So I ended up choosing a carbon fiber CS style spoiler for the F83.

Form and function (covered every square inch with 3M tape on the bottom for those 100 mph + drives). Its solid and isn't going anywhere.

Took a lot of time to align and measure to ensure perfect fitment, but in the end I am super happy with the lines and contours matching the F83 specific trunk. Low profile, but finishes the rear end.

Enjoy!

Looks really good Goose

Dang3r · 08-30-2021, 05:11 AM

Not a fan of the CS style but clean job

Car looks great!

You may consider removing the rear headrests. Looks much more streamlined. Of course, my opinion only.

I was thinking about that! Is it possible or are they locked in for the rolling/safety aspect? I know there are hidden roll bars as well.

Pauldunlop13 · 09-03-2021, 04:30 PM

the pop out really easily - I know because I have done it on the 2015 and the 2019

I also know, because I read on a site that you had to yank them with a lot of force to get them out - when I did that, the first one went flying in the air, and luckily didn't hit/scratch the car

Then I am absolutely taking them out!

Carrera Dave · 09-03-2021, 07:32 PM

Yeah, they come out easily and, at least to my eyes, make the car look more like a two-seater. Much better looking.

thanks just ordered.

Carrera Dave · 09-05-2021, 09:41 AM

goto - not sure what to tell you. Mine came out somewhat easily. Took a little pulling, but came right out. Doesn't appear to affect the pop-up roll bar, but of course, I've not rolled my car to activate the roll bars!

goto35 · 09-05-2021, 11:28 AM

Could you show a picture of it removed?
