I have the Vorsteiner rear diffuser. Definitely a high level of quality. I for one would not skimp on CF. Vorsteiner uses pre-preg, autoclaved carbon fiber with a UV coating. The quality is on par with any OEM CF. You will find cheaper carbon to be heavier, prone to UV damage/discoloration/peeling. Good CF is expensive.

No.. You dont. A carbon lip will never have a 1000-2000 dollar value no matter how you spin it.

Somewhat agree. Some of these CF parts are way more expensive than they should be. You're paying for a name, and the BMW Tax.

Go ahead and buy some cheap knock off...it's your $. But don't come back here in a few months bitching about how it cracked and discolored or the weave/fitment is "off"...because the answer you will get is that you should have bought the higher quality piece. Things like quality and hassle free warranty have significant value to me, so I am willing to pay for it...and apparently so are others or companies like Vorsteiner wouldn't continue to be in business. |

Unlike a lot of aftermarket German car exhaust pieces where almost everyone is using the same 304SS and muffler technology you see in exhausts for import or domestic cars that cost considerably less I really do believe that when it comes to carbon fibre you do get what you pay for as there's an actual manufacturing process that depending how much quality is put in can yield different results.
