Carbon Fiber Diffuser on 2018 GTS

Hi Folks,

I had a 2016 GTS and LOVED it. I traded it for a DB11 last June and I regret it. DB11 is a beautiful GT but the 8-speed ZF tranny is rubbish. I am trading the DB11 for a new white 2018 GTS. It has the factory aero option and I am thinking to add RW Carbon Fiber Diffuser

Has anyone used RW CF diffuser or their other products? I appreciate any feedback you guys may have.

I bought it and installed it on my car. Top notch vendor and fit is right on. Quite a bit of work to install it as you need to pull the rear bumper but well worth it at the end. Go for it and welcome back to the AMG club

Thank you emericr! Good to know. Any chance you could post a picture of your car with the diffuser?

I was trying to decide between the white and Grey Magno. I went with white since it has the areo package and red/black interior.

You will love the matte finish. I am sure you understand the caveats and that the car should never see an automated car wash. Post pics of your new beast when it comes in.
