Houston rear diffuser install
I just got my mode carbon luffstrom rear diffuser and want to get it thrown on my 2012 coupe. Does anyone know a good installer in houston? thanks.

You can probably install this on your own. Really not that hard to do and will save you the $100 in labor.

If you are looking for a place, I had all my goodies installed on my previous 2011 c63 by Metropolitan Collision

818 W 16th St, Houston, TX 77008
They were on the higher end of the price range, but I believe the work was worth it.
I don't remember how much they charged since they did my diffuser, spoiler, CF hood, & a little body work at the same time. $75-$100 sounds about right though...
At least for my experience, the diffuser install was well done, they bought a set of the OE brackets for the middle part, riveted it all together and put it in place with no gaps or broken anythings within a day. Both the owner & SA (Kevin) let me walk around their shop & hover over their shoulders as they did the work, so that's a plus in my book too.
HTH. Good luck!

Super helpful, sounds like my kind of shop. Wanted to try it myself, but afraid of screwing up a pretty expensive piece of carbon fiber. Thanks so much for the info.

I am very tech savvy when it comes to cars and installing parts.
Installing a carbon rear diffuser was a huge pain.
After 2 days of struggling, I took it to the dealership.
Dealership said it took 3 techs to get it on...

Easy DIY, give it a whirl. I installed my MC rr diffuser in under 2 hours and fitment was as good as factory. Take your time and use the oem bracketry.

Went to Deviate autosport in Bellaire and they were amazing. Everyone was nice service was fast and attentive but most importantly job was done 100% right. Check out my new carbon fiber rear diffuser (mode carbon - thanks Nicholas) and a gloss black wrap on the chrome window surrounds.
