Rear Diffuser Question

Are the rear diffusers for the e63 direct fit? Or does it require cutting or any type of fitting? Specifically the JL-Motoring diffuser.

I believe no one has a rear diffuser for the '07-'09 E63

Seeing as how the E63 has a different rear bumper than the E55, I'm gonna venture a guess that the JL website has wrong information. The same diffuser can't fit both or people would have done that long ago.

Have to tried e-mailing JL?

Now, they also claim this....

This is not the diffuser you asked about and it looks to have the same exact fitment as the other, just 2-fin. At this point, I think I'd trust them with applications about as far as I could throw them.

I didnt ask about a specific diffuser, all i asked about was the install in general and provided a example of the company and type of diffuser. You jumped in and said that no one made a diffuser at all for the 63 which was not true. I didn't ask about quality and I didn't ask for your personal opinion. You've provided me with zero helpful information so i would appriciate it if you didnt post anything else here unless you have something helpful add.

People have been asking for E63 diffusers for years and the answers have always been that no one makes one, except some limited production run that Euroteck did. All I was telling you was what I knew until you smarted off with post #5. Even after that, I still provided you with more information in direct regards to the diffuser you specifically asked about in post #1. Regardess, I apologize for anything you inferred and hope the JL one works for you.

It may be worth inquiring with BenzWorks about this, as I was able to get them to install one on my Suvneer E63 bumper. See photos here.
