Just a quick tip. As you know from the pics of my diffuser the double-sided tape was showing at the edges especially at the top centre and sides, anyway i removed the diffuser today, took of the double-sided tape and stuck the whole diffuser back on with black sealant round the inside edges and centre of the diffuser (make sure you have turps or white spirit handy to wipe excess sealant off the bodywork and lots of old rags as the sealant is hard to remove once set). The plus is it will never come off and the edges now blend in with my black body colour and no tape or fibreglass edge is visible. Unfortunately, its started raining so will hopefully take some pics tomorrow.

Hope that helps.

I think you should be banned for using your cell phone to take that pic.

white and whiter
the fins are why people buy it. If they don't like the fins they can just vinyl or paint the diffuser to the same effect.

with any aerodynamic mods they do serve some purpose. the fins can actually direct the air flow from under the car out cleaner.

Side Vents for W203 AMG front bumper

Looks like everybody is happy with the W203 rear diffuser, mine is on its way. I think Teo did a good job here.

Just out of curiosity, do you think he can make this thing happen! I am interested for a W203 front bumper side vent, anyone? I will start another thread as its a bit off topic here.

EDIT: Sorry to have stolen pics from some other forum members, no offence.

There is not much room for the W203, if it can be done, in any of the styles above, I really want to see it happen. The one on the SLK55 Black Series is actually an add on piece with mesh behind it.

To save me from cutting the bumper, I may just have the area painted in black, lay the mesh on and then sticky on the vents. since the front bumper stays low to the ground, it may not be too visible.

If that does not look good enough, I will have it cut.

The most difficult part is to have the thing accurately fitted.

I look forward to it.

tudu.... do you know what kind of black sealant you used (name/brand). How hard was it to apply and stick to the bumper? Any other suggestions and tips you can offer if we want to install it the way you did? Got pics?

Thanks,
Cintoman
