Has anyone found a rear diffuser that is different than stock but still fits in the rear bumper? I am replacing my OEM one and was wondering what options were out there

Nexus 7.... deal with it

CF, Quad setup for M3 exhaust, and maybe a paint matched option.

You can always prep your OE diffuser and CF wrap it :)

+1. Why don't you just refinish it? Do you want a physically different diffuser? Or just a newer-looking one?

I kinda want a different looking one I'm not opposed to the stock one in cf but I have seen some sweet looking ones for M3's and was hoping that either they fit our cars or there are ones in that style for our cars

I have personally only seen the MtechII ones in CF. However, I don't go looking for odd and overpriced pieces made by ACS or Hamann

Yeah Justin, I saw this link and even contemplated going this route....I thought this would look awesome but then realized that I would have to do some modification to my exhaust as well....still, it looks awesome! :thumbsup

Yeah If you have a muffler delete, which I think Steve does...this would look bad ass.

May have to look around to see if I can find a lower price on it but that is what I am after.... Nothing radical but something that sets it apart a bit

you could probably get an eisenmann muffler for the e46M3 to work on it with some custom piping done between the resonator and muffler

Can I have your stock diffuser? Somebody smashed mine this morning....

ya... you will have to dremel the exhaust opening a bit to get it back to stock looking.... I have 3" tips on my exhaust and while tracking the car they got super hot and worked their way into the stock opening a bit. if you want it though its yours just pay shipping. I will let you know when the new one gets here

Thanks man! That's a big help. I'm getting a newer exhaust soon anyway, and I'm sure it could use the clearance. Let me know what's up, I really appreciate it!

Steve, any update on this?

Anyway, just want to share this with you guys who are contemplating about quad exhaust setup...

The one I received was messed up in shipping so returned it, stock one split when removing it (guess it was brittle) ended up finding a second hand one off eBay and modified it to fit the larger diameter exhaust I had fitted I'm happy with it although its not as unique as I initially set out for... May do something else in the future but this works for now
