Anyways I don't know how much the other diffusers cost but that was what I was quoted for the TS rear diffuser. It does cost a lot but its a really nice piece.

just thought id throw this out there, at one of the last meets i had a chance to see ts and mastergrade (replica) diffusers, and imo the replica looks better, it was shiny and had a nice weave to it, as opposed to the ts which looked like dry carbon (i think it is?). But ts is 2x lighter then the replica lol. in that sense when comparing the two id just go for which look you prefer more...

i for one actually thought the ts was the replica until the owner tolled me

I have the replica, as far as wet carbon lay goes, it's a nice piece. but the mounts are really just blocks of resin with a sheet of carbon weave in it, lol. As far as those little details go, the Top Secret shows why it's pricey. Also has a matt finish, which I actually prefer, but for more than 2x the cost, no thanks.

hmm, maybe. I've actually only seen pictures of the real one, it doesn't look as glossy, but I didn't think it was dry, I just thought it was matt finished wet lay. at any rate, I'd believe it's done quite a bit better than the replica.

I have the front diffuser and its pretty glossy. I would assume the matching rear piece would be the same.
