Might buy the diffuser, is there a chance you could get a bright shot of the diffuser from knee height and close up of the weave please
Few images this customer also added the maxton rear corner splitters added but you can see the rear diffuser

Like it but not sure I want to bond it to the oem part. Would be more inclined if it was a bolt on-part.

Hi

The car above belongs to me.
The diffuser will definitely need bonding.
The diffuser itself is nice but wouldn't be adequate with bolts. It needs the the majority of the surface to have adhesive to give a flush look.
Definitely looks better with the corner splitters they really finished it off.
I was a lot happier with the look once those were on.
Unfortunately I didn't take a photo of the centre piece on it's own but could have sworn I had but looking back cant find one.

I agree. I decided to order the side skirts first to see what the look like before getting the front and rear spoilers. Des has been very helpful in sending lots of photos of parts on his car and those of his customers and giving advice on fitting. They are due to arrive Monday and I’ll post some photos once fitted. I’ve gone for the gloss black on his advice.

Be interested to see piccies.
Can't decide whether to go for them or not.
Yes gloss black thd one to go for. Apparently the carbon fibre look version is not very good. I went with Des's advice as well

I have now fitted the Maxton side skirts to my GC and very pleased. On the advice of Des at Banshee I opted for the gloss black finish and IMO it blends in perfectly with the Nero paint and looks very OEM spec. They do protrude slightly more than the OE spec skirts on the S but def make the car look lower and wider on the road.

They came with fixing screws but I opted to change these for hex headed black self tappers with built in washers so I could get a really tight fit using a socket on the head. Also put some 15mm wide 3M tape on first to hold them in place whilst I drilled the holes and fitted the bolts. You just drill and screw into the plastic underside of the OE sill covers so no drilling of the metal and risk of causing corrosion.

Will think about the front spoiler and rear diffuser but don’t want to wander too far from OE look and make it too “bling”. 7880478805

Hi
How much lower do the side skirts or front splitter sit?
I sometimes have parking issues if someone parks and blocks access to what I laughingly call my carport might be relevant.
