Side vents and rear diffuser
 
I can’t seem to find the parts numbers; does the sedan and wagon share the same rear diffuser part number? Trying to figure out if they are interchangeable.

And am I crazy or are the side vents in carbon fiber seriously $750? (The upside down tick shape on the sides)

I went the other way totally. Zero carbon, no night package and no badges. If you don't know what to look for you think it's an E300. I love surprising people. I surprised the hell out of a biker today on a sweeping connector ramp. He was in the right lane taking it at pretty good clip, listing 45 degrees. I went around him and was 1/8 mile onto the new highway before he finished the ramp. It's just a plain white sedan. And a sleeper is a lot cheaper to dress.

The diffuser for the sedan and wagon are not interchange, they are different parts with different part numbers.

For the pair, or each? I had mine replaced under warranty, and it was around $500 for one! Total rip-off but what can you do!

Same here but in wagon form :-)

I saw them as a pair. I tend to stick to known names or oem for CF pieces but $750 just seems ludicrous for these pieces.

I recently bought left fender carbon fiber (ornament) trim for about $380 shipped or so. Broked mine after car wash :(((

I assume right side gonna have the same price

Did you replace it? If so, how was it?

I did not because fixed old one and put it back, but decided to buy a new one in case it will get broken again and I'll replace it.

Removal process is pretty easy.

You can pull it out with a credit card but do not pull one side at the time all the way out, make it slow and each side step by step.

You can also open the hood in a service position and watch between fender and engine bay and you will see pins that going through the fender. Push them out and that's it.

I discovered mine was broken on one side at the rear pin the first time I washed the car. Replaced by the dealer under warranty and has been ok since.

For the price they’re asking for these I think I’d be getting out the crazy glue and whatnot to try to fix it before buying one.
