Hi Guys!
I was waiting on EuroRev's ACS Carbon Fiber M-Tech Diffuser option but their guy is telling them now they can't cut it for a Quad Exhaust. (they can only modify for single port opening due to the CF not cutting right)
The ACS style diffuser looks like this: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?act=attach...st&id=55106
EuroRev is telling me my options are to go either Matte Black or Gloss Black without Carbon Fiber.
For my car's color (Space Gray) which would be best? I could also conceivably just paint match so it's Space Gray?
Currently I have Matte Black and it's "OK".
I'm going to to finish this THursday and am looking for some good opinions.
Thanks.

i would go color match as well. but black (either matte or gloss) still has my attention as an option. my reason is if it matches with the car if there is more "black"... like shadowline trim, black kidney grills (which you have), maybe a black splitter, black or dark wheels (which you also have). and maybe powdercoating your trunk spoiler as well (thinking of 61mac11's e60 as well with these ideas). sorry just thinking out loud and giving you more options for mods

Gloss black. CF would've looked real nice!
I'm leaning towards Gloss Black. Maybe Hamaan splitters in Black later?
Anybody else?

From the pic, I think matte black if you're not going with CF. But then again, it's such as big piece on the car that a gloss black might just look better. Matte black is good for "small trims," but gloss if it's a big trim in relation to the back view.
