Noticed that the rear diffuser on my 458 has a slight crack in it with one of the fins slightly at an angle. I think this was done by valet parking.

It’s not Carbon - has anyone had one repaired or am I looking at having to fit a new one ?

I would look for somewhere that does fibre glass/composite repairs and have them quote you.

Had my local boat builder repair my F430 diffuser.

pretty sure the 458 fins are replaceable on their own.

Thanks all. I’ll see what my dealership say - they have been very good with the minor fixes the car has needed so far.

Not a Ferrari but I had my 600LTs carbon undertray repaired (had a bad crack in it) by Rs Automotive in Southend…did a really excellent job I must say.
