Personally i prefer the standard LCI one.
The black one looks cheap and tacky, sort of barryboy fibreglass bodykit style (sorry!) The white one is ok, but still a bit too shouty for my tastes. The white color makes the performance one look a bit odd. It looks better on some other colors. Maybe it would look better painted a dark grey like the stock one, rather than body color. Out of the two pictured i prefer the white one, but if it were my car, i'd be fitting the standard one. I've seen a carbon version of the Performance one which i liked though. |

I prefer the OEM BMW performance diffuser too. I wouldn't paint it the same colour of the car - prefer it if the whole thing was black

Here's mine just fitted.
I think it looks far better in reality than in the pics I've taken. I still find myself stopping to look at it, I think it's the best mod I've made so far. |

This is the performance one in carbon:
I imagine the plastic one painted black or gunmetal sort of color would look similar. the standard LCI one is like this: Though i'm now wondering if thats a E90/E91 only part, cant find a pic of the same thing on an E92... |

I prefer the black diffuser look. It stands out more as a feature and compliments the exhaust setup nicely.
Your setup looked spot on before but it sounded like you were getting bored of it |

I have the standard 335 diffuser on my car and I'm might wrap it in 3M carbon wrap.
Although I am very tempted to replace the standard diffuser for the BMW performance one depending on the price. |

It was aftermarket mate, the fitment was a bit of a problem to be honest
