Really like these carbon bits, if I decide to keep my 35iS for a while I might copy you :driving:.

Where did you get each from? The rear diffuser looks great, is it a cut and replace job or sits over the top?

It's hydro dipped, using the original piece which means the fit is perfect. I did find the real piece in China, however it cost £360 and they only had one which sold months ago. Mine was dipped then clear coat on top, cost £80. The rest is real carbon, just needed that last piece to finish off the rear, I'm happy with the results. Rest of the kit can be found online, try Mstyle.

Keep the 35is, it's a rare car.

That carbon fibre rear diffuser is beautiful :o. Any more pictures from further back?

Also any performance modifications on your car yet?

Thanks! I'll take some more photos for you soon.

No performance mods, car is still under BMW warranty, so I can't mess about with it.

Melbourne Red if I am not mistaken, I am sure the OP will correct me if I am wrong. Its gorgeous, I had it on my 1 series but looks way better on the Z4 or E92 M3!

I don't think there is a metallic version, is there? Whatever, it's a good colour.

There is another red, too. Called … ?

I like the idea of hydro dipping the rear diffuser. Does the diffuser come off the car easily?
