C350 Exhaust, diffuser?

Anyone installed a quad tip exhaust like the Eisenmann or Meistershaft? A while back there was a lot of speculation about drone, sound etc. Anyone have any actual experience with one of them?
Carbon rear diffuser for C coupe stock bumper (Quad size)? I've seen non carbon ones, but looking for carbon.

I have my meistershaft on the way. Should be here next month or sometime. GT haus pushed back my delivery date from march. Can't wait to put it on.

I got my CF diffuser for JL motoring. Filment is pretty good. Just got it installed yesterday. I'll post pics of it when I get a chance.

Which exhaust model? Is the diffuser for a quad? I'm very anxious to see photos of it installed.

I ordered the quad connected ovals.

The diffuser is for quad. But right now it has the stock dual exhaust. So theres a huge gap.

Sorry for the craptastic pictures. But they give you a good idea of how they look like. I'll post more pics when the weather gets better.

That diffuser looks great! Can you give details on the quality of the piece and installation (any issues)? You can PM me if you'd rather. Did you order the race or sport version of exhaust? Thanks for your posts, this is really helpful.

The diffuser is of pretty good quality. The only problem I have with it is that it is secured with metal tabs. The bottom center of the diffuser has nothing securing it to the car. I feel like if I go too fast, the diffuser might scoop up the air and crack it. But its holding up good so far. Oh and another thing, since its secured with metal tabs, the body shop I took it to had to remove the bumper to install it. Costed me $110. I'd give the diffuser a 8/10.

I ordered the Race exhaust. Right now I just have a x pipe installed.

Here are some higher quality pics of the diffuser.

Thanks for the details, and the better photos. The diffuser looks very nice in the pics. Please send me a PM or email when you get your exhaust installed and start driving with it. I'm anxious to get a detailed report about the sound, and impact on interior noise levels, drone etc. Thanks.

I just got my exhaust installed today. I can tell you one thing, they are LOUD. sounds nice through. Theres alot of drone, but i hope it gets better after it breaks in. I think I will dynamat the spare wheel well and get my resonator put back in to quiet down the exhaust sound. I'll have some more time to get pics and video of it tomorrow.

2012 C250 Coupe
Well, I finally ordered all the necessary parts today to get Quad exhaust done on my C250 coupe! I like to push the envelope, so definitely get ready for the "loudest" C250 you will probably ever hear. I just hope it doesn't sound too ricey... On my C300 I ran a pure resonator delete with x-pipe and muffler delete setup. THAT was loud, obnoxious and had TERRIBLE drone.

With the C250 I plan on running a (1) 2.5" Magnapack 14" long, followed by a 2.5" Y-Pipe Inlet to a Dual 2.25" outlet, then feeding quad titanium polish C63 styled exhaust tips to tie in the C63 diffuser (Resonator and Muffler Deleted). I hope the parts get here ASAP so I can get some videos on here for all to see, and then base their mods off my videos! I never was a fan for full Catback systems. I like to design, mix and match my own parts and do the exhaust myself. This way I get a custom sound how I want it sound, and save TONS of money too! Now I just hope that the Magnapack will be enough to eliminate the drone to my liking...

I got that diffuser 2 years ago from eBay so it was one of the early ones. The quality isn't perfect but I'm sure other vendors have better quality ones by now. I think JL motoring has some.
