Which quad tips should I get?

I've found many quad tips AMG look on ebay and I think these two are closest to AMG

Which one should I get?
This http://m.ebay.com/itm/141444270386?nav=SEARCHOr this? http://m.ebay.com/itm/231195414310?nav=WATCHING_ACTIVEOr any suggestions?

Steam only happens in winter or cold weather. I live in Saudi Arabia and winter is too short (1-2month) also it's not too cold.

The alienexpress one has a deflector inside that splits the exhaust evenly. I assume some of the ebay ones as well but maybe not all.

Don't expect them to be. I don't think any of them are 100% exact OEM replica. Here are some pics of my alienexpress ones. Expect some imperfections as well. Notice the 2 dents I have on mine. They're on the inside and not noticeable at all. Got additional discount due to that so I'm not complaining.

Can you take picture look inside to see if there a hole connected.

There's a hole for the other tip so both tips are functional. Not just 1. You can't see it now as the deflector is cover the hole. If the tips weren't installed then you will be able to see it on the other side.

Not 100%, but close enough that unless you have them side by side and look closely you won't notice. The biggest deal is you can't tuck them in quite as much as the AMG tips. Looks fine, but they do stick out a little more.

Yes, provided you get the c63 style diffuser. They are weld on tips. You'll have to have muffler shop install them. Cost me around $100 to get them welded on.

Not much. They're just tips after all. Do an X pipe or resonator delete at the same time if you're looking for sound.

I've seen the "x pipe" mentioned before,but I'm not sure what it cost or where to get it. I'm installing my rear diffuser, ordered the tips is this a cost efficient mod to do at the same time?
