Another Try
2200+ views and no one willing to tell how their install went or how it looks?
Perhaps it is only me that thinks it would be cool to have a carbon Fiber rear diffuser? Maybe I need my taste buds checked?

Brian4lev,
I was interested too, but I couldn't find any one that had installed one. If you look at the pic and, look under your car, you will see there are two arms that bolt to the chassis. There are no arms on the pic. I can't see what keeps it in place. The two ends clip in, but nothing supports the center without the two arms.
If you find out anything, please let me know.

JL Motoring Carbon fiber diffuser
I got this "Diffuser"
Ok, $399 for this? wouldn't do it again.
The piece is extremely flimsy about 3 sheets of paper thin.
The fitment is not good. You will need to take out the factory black diffuser piece as it will not fit over it.
Once on, its really obvious that the mold used for this was a few cm's too small. We had to use a copious amount of double sided tape to make sure it doesn't fly off at highway speeds.

Thank you so much for posting this. I was about to order one as well but I could never get a straight answer about how it was installed. Did yours have the two arms that bolt to the chassis or did you just tape the whole thing on?

there weren't arms.
but i had to use a dowel and put my own screws in at the ends where it wraps around. There was no way that tape would have held this whole thing flat.
