Hey guys I know there has been some talk about this. I have searched ebay and other places and can only find the 2 fin in carbon and one 3 fin in plastic. Is anyone on here interested in doing a group buy for a carbon 3 fin diffuser? I really dont want a 2 fin on my c55.

There's quite a few of us with the 3 fin from Teo, the fitment isn't 100% but still a CF 3 fin . I'm just a lurker but my C55 is pretty well mod'd, I'm going to try to get a shoot done this spring to show it off.

Not sure, I purchased it from him over a year ago...it is waaay over priced at about 4x the cost of the 2 fin ebay ones. I don't have any pictures, but I can snap a couple. It's covered in snow/salt since the C55 is my daily. PM your email and I'll get you some this evening.

3m on the top and rivets on the bottom, however some parts of the top are so wavy the 3m doesn't stick and I've just come to terms with partial fitment

I will post them when I get home but this one that I bought did not fit well. It was well made but too stiff and did not wrap around the driver side bumper so it protruded out. 3M tape was unsuccessful. I've asked my shop to try and insert tapping screws through the fender to either pull the diffuser in or pull the bumper out to have the two sides meet tightly. If the shop can't do it I'm returning it to China. Here is the link to the listing I bought it from.
