Morning all,

Currently collecting parts for later in the year when my PFL S3 saloon runs out of warranty, so far I have H&R 20mm springs, RS3 grille, Maxton carbon splitter & carbon spoiler

Looking for options on the rear diffuser, Rieger don't seem to do one for the saloon? if anybody has links please share, or if anybody has fit one then pics would be great, many thanks
 
Ill be ordering one from AliExpress, about to order the Maxton splitter and the side skirts for this month

How do you find the carbon look? I was less than impressed with the pictures Maxton sent me...

Yeah sure, this is the one I will more than likely be getting https://www.aliexpress.com/item/A3-...b687-48f3-95aa-b06e41e52b49&priceBeautifyAB=0

Ops, sorry for the long link

Yeah keep me updated if you can about the splitter...I think ill be going gloss black on mine on everything on the bottom half...then for either gloss black wing mirror covers or carbon ones
If it's poor quality it will be going back, managed to find a 10% off voucher as well

Was the 10% voucher JamieST2016?

The gloss black one looks spot on so ill stick with that I think...should be ordering mine in the next few days
 
Ive used AliExpress on a number of cars now including our R32 Golf Mk5...that had a full on carbon rear diffuser and TBH it was ok...more than acceptable...it just needed holding in place while bolting in due to the extra stiffness from the carbon itself...but nothing I wasnt prepared for

Same with mirror caps, lots of other random stuff really...all been spot on

Looking at UK/US/Euro prices of what look like the same products, I know im going straight to the far east and cutting out the middle man...if its not right, then ill use one of the more reputable suppliers...but if you dont try you wont know! Im pretty sure thats where all these companies get their parts from anyway
 
Yes that's the one

Although they do amazing bits, some bits a pretty pricey!

Just paid £28.46 import charges, rear diffuser from china will be with me tomorrow :)
 
I’m guessing they just import them from an external supplier and wack on a huge margin on them just because they can.
They say they manufacture in house, but don't currently have any due to reworking the mould they use, hence me importing one from China, will be interesting to see the quality & fit
 
This arrived Friday, anybody got a link to a guide on rear bumper removal

All I will say is make sure you check your bumper against the boot shut lines. My first attempt was well off. Not much movement but enough for it to be off. Be brave but cautious when pulling the sides of the bumper out from the rear wings. Any snags mate just give me a PM. I'll try my best to run you through any issues.
