Once I go 19” I will be more flexible to drop the front more then the rear compared to OEM.

I have it on mine, mounted by Manthey.
In addition with competition suspension and wing setting, it creates more downforce on the track, especially in the big and fast curves on the Nordschleife. You feel it a lot (the complete package) in Spa too.
No way to scratch the diffusor...the rear end of the car is not that low.
Absolutly useless if you only drive on the road of course.

Can anyone also actually confirm the R diffuser part No?
Thanks,

Final question, if anyone who has fitted the R diffuser to their car can help, can you check / take a picture of the clearance to the right hand side exhaust valve actuator as mine is touching it

Installed it on my car this past weekend. Install was very simple and straight forward without even jacking the car up. My only issue with fitment on the .1 RS is with my Dundon headers one of the exhaust pipes it touching the diffuser on the front corners of it. Easy fix with a Dremel and all is good.
I have not tracked the car yet so I don't know if there is a difference downforce with it on the car. I think it is going to be negligible until you get into higher speed corners like Turn 12 at Road Atlanta, Turn 16-18 at COTA, etc
