seibon rear diffuser not fitting
So I bought this brand new seibon diffuser for my 15 f sport and the tabs underneath do not match up even close to the factory mounting points any help or suggestions would be appreciated

Seibon parts fit HORRIBLY. When I installed their CF Trunk, I literally had to drill every hole again in the right spot and file all the cut outs bigger and the taillights dont even fit. Had to nearly cut out the whole housing to make it even fit somewhat and theres still a gap. Screw holes are all in the wrong place too. It's just not worth buying from them unfortunately.

I just got the same diffuser and fitment is not perfect. It's good enough for me but you wouldn't be unique in your problem.
I had to drill some extra holes, but mainly for the part that fits near the wheel well (as there were no holes that lighted up at all). However, the tiny grommets lined up for me (that connect the bumper to the diffuser) as well as the larger grommets that secure the bumper to the plastic underbody. It took some physical haggling but I was able to get most grommets like stock.

Are they aware of how bad their mood is? Or do they just not care lol
