Default V40 Styling kit advice

Im thinking about having the exterior styling kit fitted to my D4 but only wanted the defuser and twin oval end exhaust pipes fitted but had a few questions.

a)Do I have to buy the complete kit, I dont want the other bits just the end pipes and the diffuser.

b)I dont want to fit myself, would the main dealer charge an arm and a leg to fit or would it be cheaper/better to source a body styling company to do it, if so can anybody recomend a company nr to Cambridgeshire.


I will have the Ice white difusser (same colour as my car) instead of black shown in below picture.

Have to ask the dealer what they will charge to fit just the back bit,

You can fit just the rear splitter as its just clipped to bumper in place of plain panel

The diffuser should just clip into place as well as the boot spoiler, but the bumper pods and sill extension before the rear wheel require a plastic support to be riveted to the car and then they clip onto the plastic holder

Would you happen to know if a 2017 V40 R Design lower difusser would fit a 2015 Nav Lux SE Model? The bumper looks identical however trying to picture whether the difusser will fit mines. I have pics but don't know if i can upload them. TIA
