will the OE finned diff cover fit just like the aftermarket ones, or not? The suspension is pretty close to the same, so maybe the diff is similar as well. Anyone ever tried?

As previously stated it just bolts up. I wonder what it is you see in it though.
They have been tested on track cars, and saw a 5degree F overall temp drop at the diff. Its a waste of money. Purely for looks. Its only a matter of time before you drag it on something and smash the fins off. If the car is lowered anyways... and if its not lowered.. you shouldn't be wasting money on crap like this :roll:Tenured Automotive Service Professional - Avid BMW Enthusiast

I'd put it into the same catergory as extrude honed intakes on M20s.. total waste of money, but people do it anyway.Originally posted by JordanComment
