CL 55 AMG Kompressor
OK guys, here are my pics of my installed diffuser. I have posted more pics of my baby in the pics thread.

After I finished the installation I made the following findings;

1. Affect to performance because of extra weight of the diffuser = 0%
2. Downforce produced by the diffuser = 0%.
3. Grin factor each time you look at that rear end now = 100%
4. Uplift factor to overall appearance of the vehicle = 100%

AMG055,

The diffuser looks really !
The exhaust on the passenger side looks like it needs to be centered in the opening ? Is it just the photo ?

Yes, it was off centre. I have adjusted it after I took the pics. Both sides are now equal.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I ended up using screws, the right side bolt came off thru time.. or maybe I drive it like it's stolen.

The screws I used were Black AuvecoPak AP11792 #10x1" Tapping Screws. Just pre-drill with smaller tiny bit to start the hole, then use bit slightly smaller then Tapping screw for final hole.

I did do a search for other Black AuvecoPak Tapping screws and they also have #10x3/4 and the smaller #8x3/4; which might be better. #10x1" is a bit long.
I put in two screws spaced evenly on each side as suggested.

Love the look, ain't going back..

I think you're talking about the plastic piece that we had to rip off in order to install these diffusers am I right?

Has anyone had this happen or seen this on their diffuser, mine has only been on for a few weeks and I see the discoloration, tried a spit clean as I just noticed this yesterday but it is not from a scratch and the surface feels smooth seems like it may be inside the clear coat.

Hmmm, mine looks as good as the day it came in with the original 7/10 decal on the underside... What do you clean it with? That's interesting

Could you please email me the pictures and your name so that I may look up your order. I am also assuming that this was purchased directly from Euroteck?

sales@euroteckmotorsports.com

thank you
