RW Carbon question
Hello,
I’m a new member with a 2016 San Marino Blue M6 Gran Coupe. I am looking at the RW Carbon Fiber package with the rear diffuser, front splitter, rear spoiler, etc... Has anyone purchased and installed RW Carbon on their cars? Is the quality good? How’s the fitment? The pricing is good, just don’t want to buy junk for my M6 Any advice is appreciated! Thx |

Please note - if you use the outer diffuser with the lower diffuser you will have to "notch out" both pieces to fit together. RW Carbon website will not tell you this. You can use lower diffuser by itself without any modifications. You can also install the outer (upper) diffuser by itself (without the lower diffuser) without having to alter to fit. But if you use them both together you MUST modify each part to fit together properly as there's about a half inch of interference. This is because the outer diffuser extends down about a half inch lower at the bottom outside corners. Overall I am pleased with the quality and fitment. Did it all myself - but would recommend a good body shop to install the parts on the rear as it was a bit time consuming to notch the two pieces. Original rear spoiler was also a bitch to get off. Placement of new rear spoiler has to be exact (not much room for error) in order to get a perfect fit though. Front lip was easy and anyone can do it with a socket wrench. With the RW Carbon parts you can get pretty much the exact same look and quality fitment of the Vorsteiner products for about half the price. However I do like the Side Skirt Blades of the Vorsteiner product over the RW Carbon ones and will probably get those next - even though they list for almost $2k (ouch). Hope this helps.. |

Amazing!
That does help! Do you think the Vorsteiner CF Weave is going to match the RW? I am also going to do the 2 part rear diffuser as I think it looks aggressive and fits the rear of the car very well. What color is your M6? Do you have any pics of the CF after it was installed? Any other opinions are welcome and appreciated! Thx |
