Duke Dynamics vs eBay quad diffuser? is ebay fine?

Duke dynamics and the modbarg quad diff for e92 335i are both almost double the price of the exact same looking carbon fiber quads on eBay. Anyone have any experience? thanks

Try to search for Duke Dynamics reviews and decide.

I am selling a duke dynamic quad diffuser if that will help make your decision haha. It was painted black by the previous owner but it is not the FRP. I can take pictures for you, I had it repaired because there was a crack and want to get it reinforced in case I decided to sell it. Fiberglass resin wouldn't stick to it and you can see the CF weave from the backside.

Selling because I want the LTMW Diffuser.

Your best option is to find a quad diffuser on the forums. Duke dynamics isn't very good with their delivery schedule and it's $$

Just order 1 of the diffusers from Taiwan. They're direct replicas of the Duke Dynamics parts. With half the price and 100 percent less frustration. I've had 2 and they both fit perfectly.

Took me like 3 months to get my Duke diffuser. Decent quality though. Ended up moving and don't have it installed but it looks like fitment will take minor tweaking when I mocked it. Mine is not the carbon one, I want it body color.

Pulling trigger on ebay one because it's basically the exact thing without duke dynamics stamped on it I believe and it will arrive by Wednesday.

Couple questions:
Who is doing the install?
Where is this shipping from?
