Amuse trunk + bmw performance diffuser..

MFKN3 · 07-10-2010, 11:09 PM

I'm after some feedback. The trunk still needs the roundel installed and the rear bumper is missing the black insert in the centre...but

Should I keep the diffuser satin black or repaint it space grey like bmw intended?

The rear end looks good now, but I am wondering if it looks "too aggressive" and thinking space grey will look better...

the trunk looks weird

lpphreakx06 · 07-10-2010, 11:34 PM

Paint the diffuser.

Is that an authentic or Amuse style trunk?

You're missing that upper center black piece which is making it look throw'd off. I'd recommend some nicer muffler tips

PlannBee · 07-10-2010, 11:48 PM

Keep it how it is but definatly put that upper piece on.

your rear end is sick though, i love the amuse trunk without a roundel.

Thanks mate. The tips are fine, just dirty. It's mille miglia.

The trunk is a replica and fitment is about 95-98%, just needs to be raised a little more on the right.

Yes, Roundel and centre section are missing and will be installed tomorrow.

Black or color code diffuser??

Thanks man!! Trunk is nice - looks even better on the M3 though..

I'm going to put a roundel on it to smooth things out a bit - looks a little rice without one IMHO

I think I'm feeling the black now... Dunno

Looks good, but the trunk's deck looks little weird though. Not a bad weird but for some reason it looks higher than an authentic Amuse. Post some pics of the whole car!

Toasterbeast · 07-11-2010, 12:10 PM

I think it looks good. Diffuser, trunk lid, tips. I'd leave it. Good job!

Always wondered why people blacked out licsense plate? Obviously lots of people do it. Is that info that potentially damaging. Seems easy enuff to get if u wanted it anyway.

Thanks mate.

They are personalised plates, but no real reason to I suppose.

leeadam · 07-12-2010, 10:57 AM

mmm not sure on it just black looks unfinished? paint it like mine..lol

MFKN3 · 07-12-2010, 05:43 PM

Looks great Lee.

Have you been able to source the part # for the carbon fibre insert yet? I've been told it's not avail yet, but I have seen a couple installed on the forums..

no im not too fussed about the carbon insert...however one of the guys in uk has had the diffuser section done in carbon wrap

JoeyBananaz18 · 07-13-2010, 08:32 AM

amuse and LCI tails? win. very nice.

slipaway37 · 07-13-2010, 05:48 PM

What are those two small holes just above the diffuser? Is there another part that covers that area?

MFKN3 · 07-13-2010, 05:54 PM

Finished

Think I might keep it black for the time being...
