Yes, the way it goes on will be like our other diffusers. You take off the black plastic strip there now. Our part replaces that. it goes on with 3M tape already installed, and 2 bolts on each side above the exhaust as an extra percaution.

Wrong Phone number listed for Euroteckmotorsports

I tried to call the number listed on your message for Euroteckmotorsports. Their Phone number is actually;
(1-866-950-7779).
Where do we send our deposit for the R230 diffuser?

There's a real handy link to pay on EuroTeck's post on page 3 of this thread. Spread the word...

Hey Guys, I just wanted to mention something. We have a similar group buy going on now for the CL55/65. And to sweeten the deal we made this a limited edition part, and we will NEVER be producing them again. That made some members buy more then 1, and sell them, or sell them at a profit if you desire. So if that will help get this done, we can do the same thing, and once we make 10, we will NEVER produce anymore, which not only makes it exclusive and unique, it also holds its value VERY well.

Guys, I spoke with my local customer.... he is willing to buy 2 diffusers to get this done. Is anyone else willing to do that? Or maybe split the difference between some people? With my customer buying 2, and 5 orders from us, puts at 7. I will not worry about making 10 and keeping 1 here to sell. But this would mean we are now 2 short of our goal? Anyone willing to help get these 2 done?

Let me know!

Thanks!

Sure I can help! I do not have one lying around here though, because when we did start to make these, I too need to have a rear bumper purchased to work from.

I would not be worried about buying one off ebay. Just as long as you find out its condition before you buy it. Also, as long as its OEM, its fine. New is around $800-900. A good condition used on ebay will range from about $450-700 I think. If its not your color, you would need to have it painted obviously, which it never a bad idea...

Let me know if you need any other help.
