Thank you! I see what you're saying; I thought it was a nice touch leaving the lights exposed.

Thank you for the extremely kind words. I couldn't agree more about the wheels. Especially 21". My buddy joked that it looked like I was riding on spare tires with the stock wheels on, lol. Which wheels were you looking at?

It's just a Vorsteiner Rep from a vendor here on the forums. Painted gloss black.

Tastefully done. I'd just remove the rear badge.

Thank you! These are the specs I got from Bart@AUTOcouture. The rear offset is definitely not right. The wheel repair guy I use is contacting COR to find out for me. As well as sourcing some black rivets to replace the polished ones.

Thank you man! I just fell in love with the look of the F10 badge on tony.m6's car. Always something I wanted to do. The car was actually debadged for a few days before it was put on. I never really cared for the debadged look.

Did you get the diffusor from Empire Motorsports?

How well did it fit? Did it require any bodywork or was it simply bolt on and go?

Yes from Empire. It is supposed to be a simple snap in, however, mine did not fit well. The passenger side simply would not snap in. The clip was too small for the insert and would simply slide out. Almost seemed the diffuser as a whole was too small. The shop had to use a little bit of bonding glue to get it to stay. More than that, however, was how bad the carbon fiber looked. It had that yellowish look that screamed it was a rep lol. I always had the intention of painting it anyways, but if you plan on leaving the carbon fiber then I would look elsewhere. Others have said theirs' fit perfectly so I could have just gotten a bad one. One member even said it looked exactly like the authentic one side by side. I have considerable doubts about this.

Good luck man! Be sure to post your results. I'm curious to see if mine was an anomaly.

Ahh. I see what you did there. : Hopefully, I will follow up on my inquiry soon. Lead tech at the dealership is trying to scare me.

Nice ride and love the wheels. If you don't mind me asking how has your experience been with the COR wheels themselves?
