For everyone reading; The ‘spare’ plastic piece lines up with the six tabs on the bottom edge of of the diffuser. Even if it doesn’t belong with your model, it will give extra rigidity. It supports wiring and other stuff on some models like my S205 C250d. It simply clips onto the tabs. Easy!
I've watch this video months ago, because I wanted to install a carbon fiber diffuser on a 2017 AMG C43 Conv. Great video and it helped me to get a good idea about a diffuser install, but for what it is worth I had to remove the complete rear bumper for a clean install. Keep up the good work Flexx
Yeah. My diffuser wouldn’t snap in well and it would of been easier if I removed my rear bumper but if I have to remove one less thing, it’s fine by me. I was able to pound the diffuser with my hand for the tabs to snap into place.
Ended up getting this Same Diffuser for free, (long story). Put it on sunday, and it took me less time than I thought it was gonna be.With a little bit of help of course. Looks spectacular. Thanks Flexx!
I would have never used a zip tie because that looks cheap and not professional. Instead use automotive bolt with a nut and that would look better and more secured. That's what I did when I installed the E63 diffuser on my 2016 E400. Rivets can be a pain and I rather used nuts and bolts. Overall the new diffuser with the gloss black quad pipe tips look awesome! Nice going Flexx! 👍
It’s not coming off. I’ve had zip ties on 3 diffusers in my past cars. Plus..I don’t care about clean install. Nobody is crawling under my car anytime soon to judge my work. Hahaha
@@TheFlexxGarage I just bought a kit, seems like the brackets wont attach to the diffuser, but it attaches to the tips, how do you know which diffuser kit is right for your bumper?
After watching this video I bought this same mod for my car. Side note for viewers, at 1:35 where he used a screw driver to remove the “Tubes”, I have rivets. As I start the installation, I’ll come back and edit my comment for anything that may be different from what I’ve seen in the video.
I installed using rivets. The tool costs only 16$ at auto zone and pep boys. I assume whoever orders this kit may come with Rivets . Easy to get and better stability. I did although use zip ties on the inner brackets
Got the same kit, bumped into the same issues as you, but it looks gorgeous. I took the bumper out and put brackets alongside the diffuser cause the clippers in the diffuser aren’t deep enough.
Yeah...I went back and did some more "slapping" and I finally got mine to all clip in. It's definitely easier to clip in if the bumper is off but I just hate removing body panels. They always take awhile and sometimes they never align perfectly when putting back on the car. I guess I'm just lazy. hahahaha
@@TheFlexxGarage looks great. and its nice that you're doing honest reviews and show the little flaws that happen here and there and how to fix them. keep it up! :)
I had installed them 2 years ago on my car. We even took bumper off to get rid of gap which upper side of bumper gives. But we ended up exactly like u.
That bit that you couldn't work out where it went sits flat on the back of the diffuser, it holds the aerials for GPS and DAB. it also helps to stiffen up the diffuser
Thank you for this video I just followed your steps and installed my exhaust and diffuser and it looks great! If it weren't for your tips I would've definitely ran into a lot of problems and wasted time. Would you ever consider doing ambient lighting?
Great video. So that black part is so you can mount plastic piece that you need to transfer from original diffuser so you can have place to use oem bolts under the car. So yeah you can use rivet or extra bolts to join oem plastik and new one you recieve with diffusor.
Thanks. Unfortunately I’m not familiar with the coupes. Not sure if they can even use the same diffuser as the sedan. Hopefully someone else chimes in.
Lol guys you have you use the other brackets from the oem diffuser and swap it to the new diffuser that's why nothing is lining up these diffusers don't come with everything you have to reuse from your oem diffuser
Just did the diamond grill install on mine took 3 hours being carefully I just forgot to install the foam thing in the middle 😂 , flex are the tips plastic ? This will be my next mod , I also did the BOV from a cla250 sounds awesome
Hey flex, thank you 🙏 this helped me a lot and i saved money by not going to mechanic…… but i have a question i got diffuser red light with it can you please tell me how do i connect the diffuser light with tail light?
Flexx - did you ever resolve the issue with the 3 clips. I literally spent hours trying to fit mine today, and had exactly the same issue. Ended up going back to stock as it looked so bad.
Hey Flexx, Could you update link? This one is no longer available. Could you give it a few moments and see what your next choice would be? What was your cost so I can stay in the same price range?
Why does that bother you if he did slap a badge on his AMG? He can do what the fuck he wants to do as if you own Mercedes Benz Manufacturing Plant. What ever he comes up on AMG badge or not Dodge Chargers, Rams, Challengers and Demons will smoke his ass and your ass! The badge means nothing for none of the Benz’s😂 also I don’t mean to insult you or even embarrass you I am just telling you the truth. Cheers mate 🍺🍺 PS. Wish I had a AMG C45 or a Dodge Demon!!
can you explain how you went about pushing the middle clip into the bumper i installed a diffuser and the middle just won’t budge im pushing it hard as hell!
The middle piece is for the 2 tips to join up. Your replace the old parts with the new plastic and it lines the exhaust up and pushes the diffuser in properly. The two things yours didnt do because of this. Fitted mine yesterday
I have c180 and tried to install almost same type of rear diffuser, but fking exhaust pipes are as an obstacle on the driver's side so the tip doesn't fit.
It should fit because the 2015-2018 AMG line rear bumper is the same as the 2019 AMG line c300. but you need to reconfirm with the reseller selling you the diffuser.
Flexx bro did you buy the rear amg bumper or it came with the car from factory ? I have the base model with the ugly rear bumper lol and i am trying to buy one without assist parking aid holes for a cheap price too any suggestions? Thanks
Oh man, every time you say "some of you more anal about it" I know you mean people like me. Seeing those tips tilted like that would irk the crap out of me! Nice video though!
I'd also like to know this as I was considering the mod too. Most likely they will say it's not stock and work not carried out through them so not authorised I'm guessing. Think I'll stick to just having my original part wrapped black
The diffusor itself looks nice, but dude,, the offset of those ugly wheels are really bad, and besides before you install any AMG kit to any non AMG car you should've already lowered your car.
Sup Flex! Awesome vid as usual, I think I know the reason you are saying the exhaust tips dip down a little bit. At 5:40 in your vid then you are mounting them back up with the zip tie, the holes were way off. I could be totally wrong , just trying to help. I’ve been looking for a rear diffuser for my 2018 c300 with the square tips. It just looks so dope! My car came with the AMG sport line body and interior which I love just wish I had that bi turbo. Lol. Keep up the great vids brother! Walt, instagram @tintcrazy
nope. It's just the tips. The 2 hanging hooks that I installed onto the plastic bracket...those hooks are not the same length..that's why the tips hands uneven. That's the nature of aftermarket parts. They'll never be perfect like OEM. I can probably take off the tips and bend the hanging hooks but i dont care. They are good enough as is...unless it gets on my nerves.
No, the tips are full metal with metal trims. I just received mine today and mine are chrome, stamped with the AMG logo. I’m very impressed by the quality
as long as you don’t throw an AMG badge on there you’re good
never have. never will.
Why is that?
@@Binphad cause it’s not an AMG
You will never find an amg badge on my car unless it’s was purchased as a true amg.

F it. I'm getting it anyway 🤣
Any plan to do the electronic valve cut???
That’s 🔥🔥🔥 bro I have a 18 w205 I want to do mines but with the chrome tips
Where did you get the mental brackets for the tips ?!
Nice. I had the same experience with the diffuser center tabs not 100% clicking into place. Seems like for $295, you get what you pay for. Lol
I paid $200. Every listing is jacked up now.
The wreckless drilling and damage and zip ties were cringy lol, the replacement part looks very cheap and flimsy, but great video nonetheless!
I just did this and for the middle clips you need someone to help you push from behind
Yeah. I fixed it after I made the video. How were your tips? We’re they straight?
@@TheFlexxGarage yes actually, I used the bracket from the oem diffuser not the middle piece but the 2 small pieces that attached to it.
@@AlDabbas what do you mean push from behind? you aren’t able to push on the back because of the brackets
looks easy enough will buy one now
and yes got rivets
is it worth the money?
I like the stock actually
I have a 2016 c300 4matic luxury.....can I replace the rear bumper with the sport style or AMG style bumper and diffuser
I HAVE THE SAME QUESTION
Yes you should be able to, there's some diffuser kits available on places like Aliexpress which are designed for the luxury spec
Hey Flexx,
Could you update link? This one is no longer available. Could you give it a few moments and see what your next choice would be? What was your cost so I can stay in the same price range?
I hope you don’t put or act like you have a real amg, but I no doubt the amg stuff always looks better then non amg
If you know me based on my past 100+ videos, you would know I’ll never be a poser and slap an amg badge on a non amg car.

Hey nice vid 👌🏻
Do you know how to remove the rear bumper trim as well? Diffuser on diesel model.
Middle bracket thing doesn't line up with c43 amg 2018 either
Left it off for 5 years and diffuser is still fine.
can you explain how you went about pushing the middle clip into the bumper i installed a diffuser and the middle just won’t budge im pushing it hard as hell!
Put one hand behind and push from the outside. I also hammered it in with the bottom of the fist with quick, strong hits.
Hey man loving ur videos bro !!!! Any update on the making the 2015+ c300 headlight upgrade video ?
Go look on my Instagram and Facebook. The answer is there.
The middle piece is for the 2 tips to join up. Your replace the old parts with the new plastic and it lines the exhaust up and pushes the diffuser in properly. The two things yours didnt do because of this. Fitted mine yesterday
mine is not even close to attaching the 2 tips. It was basically useless. You might probably have bought a better kit then mine.
the double exausts in both sides fits with the original diffuser?
No
Hello Fiexx, could you tell me the size of the rivets to hold the diffuser?
when you smack the diffuser in that doesn't work on mine? even with the factory diffuser if I try to smack it it doesn't click back in?
Probably gonna have to take the rear bumper off and installed the diffuser while the bumper is off. P
Looks good
I have c180 and tried to install almost same type of rear diffuser, but fking exhaust pipes are as an obstacle on the driver's side so the tip doesn't fit.
Anyone know where I can find a diffuser for a 2018 convertible W205 c300. I wanna do circular quad tips but these diffusers are impossible to find.
$25 for the rivet gun at Lowe’s. I did it to my c450 about 1 month ago
Can I fit this kit on c220 2017
Nice! Does it fit on the W205 estate version? Thx G
Don’t know. We don’t have the c-class estate in the USA.
Hi, great job ! Can insert to c-class model 2019 W205 ?
You can if you have a sport rear bumper like mine.
Hey I was just wondering if U can provide a link for the E Class w213 same product?
I'm definitely doing this
you thinking about doing an exhaust mod?
Eventually. Still trying to figure out my best setup for it.
Do exhaust tips improve the sound? Thanks
No
would this diffuser fit my 2019 amg line facelift w205 sedan?
It should fit because the 2015-2018 AMG line rear bumper is the same as the 2019 AMG line c300. but you need to reconfirm with the reseller selling you the diffuser.
nice video i have all understand
Now I've seen this I'm not going to bother!
Lol
I wanna see mods ur exhaust
It will happen as we get near summertime.
Hi is this diffuser gonna fit if your car have fake exhaust? I mean only 1 pipe for example c250d limousine. My exhaust tips are fake
you have to have the AMG line rear bumper for this to fit. not the luxury rear bumper
Flexx bro did you buy the rear amg bumper or it came with the car from factory ? I have the base model with the ugly rear bumper lol and i am trying to buy one without assist parking aid holes for a cheap price too any suggestions? Thanks
It’s a stock C300 sport bumper. It’s not an AMG bumper. The only change i made is the diffuser and tips (which is clearly in the video.)
I managed to find one on eBay, just installed it yesterday. They’re out there but hard to find.
Not only that but I had to buy parking sensors to fill the holes but they don’t function since my model doesn’t have that feature
