I am thinking about changing up the look of the ride. I have an m-tech rear bumper and both the bumper and diffuser are painted white, but and thinking about painting it flat black...

DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY GOOD PICS OF A M-TECH DIFFUSER PAINTED FLAT BLACK?? I cant make up my mind :/


Thanks in advance!

I used to have matte black diffuser, but I got bored with it. Now I'm back to body color. As an alternative to painting, you can vinyl wrap your existing one matte black and unwrap it if\when you don't like it anymore.

Thanks for all the info/link guys, appreciated. I saw the post on the self painting diffuser right after I posted, go figure...

Any other pics (on a white E60) would be great!

I'm getting the Mtech aero soon and was contemplating painting that trim piece a different color. Have you looked at any of the aftermarket parts?

I like the 3D Design one, although it does look very similar to the OEM one.

Paint it matte black!! You won't regret it. It adds an aggressive look to the rear, especially on AW.

The CF look is siik but way over priced in my opinion... 3D Design is the only one who makes that look eh?

^ Not sure... all authentic parts for E60's are "overpriced". Its unfortunate but true. Just support it, most don't.
