Ebay Diffusers

So I was looking into doing the quad tip conversion and came across this diffuser on ebay.

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Carbon-Fiber-...ht_4527wt_1189

Will this work for the purpose of doing the conversion? I notice that it doesn't come with any brackets, will those have to be bought separately then?

Seems like a good price and has free shipping, should I go ahead? What do you guys think?

Thanks

"Include

1 Pcs W204 C63 Carbon Rear Diffuser and 3M Tape."

That line leads me to believe this is actually a add on piece on top of another C63 diffuser. But if it doesn't require another diffuser, I'd seem its a great deal

Keep in mind that all c63 diffusers uses different brackets than non amg models. So if you get that, make sure you also get the brackets, which are expensive.

I am confused. They say that these are direct bolt-on's. That is they don't require brackets. Even the one's our sponsor (JBSPEED) sells apparently don't require brackets.

For example this one here:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fast-Shippin...a97787&vxp=mtr


What that fit on m C350? It says it comes with 3M tape and apparently that's all you need. I emailed one of the sellers and this is there response.

"Must be the original removed before you can install the new items and we offer tape included

- bmwchop168"


I want to get one just not if it won't work but the price is quite nice so just want to make sure that it'll be good.

the one chop sells requires brackets, ebay sellers also sell covers that two sided tape over the originals too, there usually much cheaper. I would stay away from ebay ones, they use crappy clear which yellows after a few months to a year down the road.

not to mention there a PITA to fit, the brackets are metal and have to be bent to secure so the bumper will have to come off

Oh no way. Fair enough, I ordered one from JBSPEED and apparently they come with brackets installed and are easy to put on. So, hopefully that works out. Now just wondering if I should get 4 different tips or the one's that are already welded in the style we need them to be. Thanks.
