Did your installer check the code on the other persons ISF? Our first thoughts when I had a CEL was the module was busted when it was actually the wiring harness. There isn't an OEM module, the module is there to simulate and trick the rear o2 sensors in thinking they are fine being that they are post cat and the PPEs don't have one hence the need for the module. It's interesting your installer said that.

How am I running without any codes and no module installed?

Could it be that GCC spec (middle east) ISFs are different? And so don't need the module?

Car is running like a beast and have gone over 1,000km with no problems

That is rather odd. I have no idea they should be pretty similar. I know the rear o2s are for emissions I am not sure if emissions is a big deal in your part of the world. Regardless it's working out for you!

I finally got around to replacing the reflectors with LEDs so now it looks much better and functional. I also just got the Wald diffuser. Better/proper pictures will be uploaded soon.

Yeah for the most part, I couldn't come to terms with drilling a hole in my bumper where the reflector is so I shortened the bolt on the reflectors and just used double sided tape to seal the edges.

I plan on selling them. Well to explain why I have so many diffusers. I initially got the cracked one from a local member while I was waiting for my other one to arrive from Japan. After debating initially if I should go with the Wald or Tom's I finally decided why not get the Wald too and find out which one I like better lol. People say I am indecisive.

No idea, for the cracked one something like ~$650 pickup ~$700 shipped?

Thanks, I can't say it was easy because there wasn't any guide to follow but I managed. I just spliced, soldered, and crimped. And I never had side skirts for sale lol so you may be thinking of a different member.
