RKP Rear Diffuser Installed, Thanks IND.

Just finished installing the new RKP diffuser on my M4. I have to say it looks wonderful!

I followed IND install video and it only took about 20 min.

Thanks IND.

Does the "foot kick" trunk release still work with this diffuser?

The comfort access / 'foot kick' function will not work with the carbon diffuser.

The BMW M Performance accessories, and interior trim are 2x2. OEM carbon roof and Vorsteiner accessories are 1x1.

Wouldn't you be able to find the sensor underneath the car and drill a hole in the diffuser at that spot...Then install it with a functioning foot-kick function?

I was thinking the same thing. Someone has to know where the sensor is.

Looks like the sensor is the black strip (EAS picture below) in the rear, cutting isn't work.
