I'm sure there are several others we can gather up here that would be as well. Limited Edition #10 - 20???
At a premium price no less.

Well guys the diffuser will be done this afternoon and the mould be started on tomorrow. I should have the first carbon part completed in about a week and a half. Then we will send it to one of the participants for a test fit, if all goes well, 2 weeks after that all diffusers will be completed and shipped!

Thanks again for everyone patience. I will say, this particular diffuser was a little harder to make then expected.

If you become willing to sell/make more, I guess let kamilclk430 and I know.
I got one, I was first to order one. I just wanted an extra one for either to resell it or order one for my buddy that has a SL55.

I cant wait till mine comes in but kinda sad I could not order an extra one

Looks great Neal. I'm guessing that indention should be there maybe for a tow hook on the back of our cars? I'm not exacly sure just taking a wild guess.

The fins on the diffuser look strange. #1 they are too rounded and #2 They do not extend far enough to the underside. I looked at the pic's of the SL500 and the CL55 and they are not as round and do extend the entire width of the underside. I don't know how to describe these other than strange.

Need to see it on a SL55 but I would agree that the idea of a difuser is to direct air from under the car, this looks like 3 carbon fiber "bumperetts" from the picture. I was kind of assuming that it would be more orientated to the underside with more of a "peek" at the "exiting" end below the bumper.

That indentation is just a natural crease in the bumper bottom, and this is made to go right over it. Check out the bottom of your bumper, you will see what i mean.

Trust me, i understand a lot of people cannot tell what a part can look like off a car, but we have done this many times, wait until you guys see it on the car, it will look great and just what you guys thought it would be.

OK Guys, I just checked my Tracking Number and I will have the diffuser today. I have work till late afternoon and also have a wedding to attend to in the evening. Tomorrow morning (well sometime in the AM) I will be going in the garage to install this with detail pictures for everyone. After the install I will have a photographer come over so we can go somewhere local and do a nice shoot of how this thing will look on the car.
