Stillen diffuser

I am having trouble telling the difference between the unpainted and matte black option for the stillen diffuser. The both looks the same to me..

Can anyone with the unpainted diffuser post a picture in this thread for me? Thinking about buying it unpainted since it may end up scratched anyways

Edit: Is the diffuser in the install guide posted by stillen the unpainted?

Good question, I am wondering the same. Debating on wether or not to order the stillen or the ikon one. I wonder if anyone here has tried the ikon one and if it fits the same. hmm. Way cheaper.. plenty of amazon gift cards.. lol

I saw the ikon one as well and heard the diffuser fit quite nicely, just the front lip is what I heard had fitment problems with them

Interesting! Maybe I'll order one now then and see, would be nice to save 200$ if its pretty much the same thing

edit: also in that install video someone asked that same question and they replied saying it was the painted matte black one in the video

If you do get the ikon one let me know how it fits! Would love to save that money and put it into getting the front lip as well.Thank you for clarifying that. Silly me, I didn’t think to check comments

I have both the front lip and diffuser from Ikon (not installed) and if you are somewhat meticulous about your car, I would not recommend them. The unpainted looks.....unfinished and uneven with shiny and dull area. The fit of the front lip actually very good but I am only test fitting it. The diffuser curve is more open (wider) than the bumper but it is flexible so you can make it to fit decently. I can't commend on the fit of Stillen but I think the painted matte black should be nicer than unpainted.

Big thanks was waiting and hoping for someone to answer me on this for awhile! I’m actually happy to hear the front lip fit well. It looks like it fit pretty well as a test fit. I think you also request ikon to paint it as well right?

You can ask them about paint but from what I see, they don't offer that service.
