GB: CSL Diffuser by CarboProject Gmbh

[oceansize]

If you are expecting Mileendcomposite or OE quality type diffuser then you’ll be disappointed. It is nothing like it. I have a friend with one of the GT style ones and it lacks in details in areas like the valley, thickness ect.

Their splitters aren’t too bad but not perfect either.

Fair to say quality and fitment good, but appearance not as good when compared to OE and mile end?

This would fall in line with his e9x plenum. The fitment is really good I've read, due to OE base, but it isn't as flashy as something like the Eventuri. Carboproject cost much less than the Eventuri as well. The first intake is the Eventuri, the one on the car is the carboproject.

I've found some really old threads on cslregister so at least the guy has been in business for a long time. NZ_M3 (maybe he will comment on what he thought back then, if he bought any) was on some of those threads and we all know he isn't one for junk so I'm going to take a chance but if it sucks then it will be the last GB I participate in. I'll just pay full retail and pick my parts myself as I've been doing. I'm pre-ordered on this group buy.

Of course most of what I've found concerning cabroproject is CF overlay so the fitment question isn't really answered.

I signed up. I am also interested in the carbon fiber center console I see on his site, would love a GB on that too.

Absolutely is coming 👌 I’m having him review & polish all available molds.

So people understand, Rene’s main business is vintage exotic restoration in full pre-preg body panels.

Rene hasn’t updated his website for a decade nor his pricing. It’s all gone up.

So if you bought one on his site he’d contact you asking for more $?

He’d tell you to contact me.

I don't think this is a particularly super great deal but I'm banking it is better than happybuyitnow and it will be pre-painted saving me the hassle. The actual cost once in the cart in dollars is $547.70 (using google's current exchange rate) for the standard diffuser plus additional shipping, notice what I circled in blue in the screen shot.

I'm with you. I've held off on buying a lot of trim pieces, euro or CSL bumper, the diffuser, and CSL trunk for when I get the whole car repainted. But the whole floor mat/CSL trunk thing and parts going NLA has started to freak me out and I might buy stuff just to throw it on the shelf. If this is a quality piece I don't have an issue paying the premium to make sure I get one, just trying to gauge my FOMO meter.

Not one photo of how the sides fit (this is critical in a diffuser) and they make you have an account to view the price. No thanks.

Thank you. Looks like this piece is 440 EUR = 525.94 USD directly from his site http://www.carboproject.eu/epages/62915324.sf/de_DE/? .

However I don't see a paint code selection, since the group buy includes paint, is that where the value lies at 599?

found the website, looks like the GT diffuser is $716+ship after Euro->$ conversion. If it's supposed to be the expensive one, but this one is $600+ship, what am I missing here?

Did Karbonius ever make one of these, and how much was it? Didn't somebody have communication with them that they were trying to get an new mold made so they can produce another run?

EDIT; binary and I were posting at the same time. I found the standard CSL diffuser, $526 after conversion but it doesn't mention anything about paint.

how long will this GB be available? I'd really like to do some more research on fitment and quality of this piece before I commit.

edit; saw it's limited to 20 spots rather than limited by time
