Best to sand down the fibers until you have a smooth even surface - then primer and paint the whole thing inc side brackets.

Once it\'s on you don\'t really notice the fibers as the car shadows most of it.

My diffuser is a R-A original hence the underside is quite smooth, i think if you go for the copies you will get an inferior product ?

As a rule i only get the proper stuff, ok it will cost more but you get a very decent product :)

I agree in general with you but sometimes the originals aren\'t brilliant and do leave room for improvement! Depends on the quality of thr originator I guess.

Yea good point,

Sometimes even the originals can be alittle dodgy, but generally are ok, and as you say where it came from is important.

Mine was from Ben Linney over at THESKYLINECENTRE so from a good source :)

Saw your car at RS but didn\'t see you about - one day I\'ll say hi!

Cheers Ben, will give that a try. It\'s not too far off now after a little bit of fettling, although it remains to be seen how well it fits! I can never resist a cheap replica, even if it means putting in some extra work to get it right. Probably not the best attitude to take when dealing with a thoroughbred like the 7!! :D :D
