Carbon Fiber Difuser Worth it or Not?

So i'm on the fence in regards to ordering it. Got a MBB comp on the way and i'm not sure if the CF diff is worth the extra grand. what do you guys think? buyer's remorse from anyone? pardon I stole a couple of pics with and without it. Pro spoiler is a must btw.

Agreed. Also night time under certain parking lot lights as well. Maybe even moreso

Possibly a lip but more than likely not side skirts right now.

I updated my post w/ a pic of the diffuser on my car.

Absolutely, I think it will look great on MBB.

Personally I don't think a center add on diffuser should is worth it.

I think if anything go for 3d or wait for someone else to release a full diffuser

IMO no, my car came with it. I barely notice it, It's a small area at bottom of car. Maybe worth $500 not $1165, what's even worse, the Carbon Spoiler(original design, not Pro) was $730, for that price I could have bought the Pro.
