eBay carbin fiber diffuser

Has anybody bought a carbon fiber rest diffuser from eBay. The only reason I would buy a cheap diffuser is because it's for looks more than function.

Looking for any members reviews on firmest and looks

Yeah. I was stooged into buying it when the mod bug bit bad and I was short on money to buy the real diffuser.

It's a piece of *****. My buddy and I tried desperately to get it to fit with no luck. Ended up sending it back and getting a full refund with no questions asked. Save up and get one from BAUSauto or Ionic Dynamics.

Don't buy generic car mods/parts from eBay, they're never good.

Fine, let me reword it a bit.

Good generic parts on eBay are so rare that it's almost always better to buy from known vendors.

Yeah there is a lot of crap parts on ebay but there are plenty of good parts there too. I'm not just talking about the name brand stuff either. For example I bought an ABS plastic oem style emblemless grille about a year and a half ago and its great. Fitment is great.

However I have yet to hear of a good carbon fiber diffuser on there. Some seller may have one but I haven't found anyone who had a good one.

eBay sidemarkers for the G are junk.

eBay clear sidemarkers for the Maxima were actually pretty nice in fit and finish. At least the ones I bought were.

Not ALL eBay parts are bad. My Gialla replica lip fits perfectly. The diffuser, though, was terribly made. Finish was decent, but there was zero fitment.
