Hey Mike. can you guys get a rear diffuser for a w203 but not the one that's on ebay.





Looks like something is missing
See how this one looks pretty whack, something that doesn't have the wannabe cutout on the right. This looks like a universal and when people order the 2 cutouts they just cut the one part off and if they want 1 cutout they just leave it.

You guys got anything like this?

Karo,
I'd have to check with the factory. Chances are they've got the same thing. I can ask if they can fill the gap on the right and close it off but they'd prob want me to run 25 units to do it.

If they need 25 units then you can start a list and I know my name would end up on there as one of the 25.

A lot of people are looking for a nicer looking single cutout. Maybe you guys can design one that looks like the black series, although I think for the 1 cutout it might be too much but for the dual cutout I think the Black Series diffuser will look nice.

Honestly, factory design isn't one of the strong points. Most China R&D = Rip off and Duplicate. lol

I think so.

AMG also did it to one of their C63 show car with some CF looking vinyls.

Ohh Ya, I agree single with this type of diffuser is a no go. For sure meant for a dual setup. If this type of diffuser is available for the w203 I'll definitely do the quad setup.
