C32/C55 Rear Carbon Fiber Diffuser

An eBay seller whose apparently from Taiwan, is selling c32/c55 Carbon diffusers.. Here is the eBay link:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BENZ-...5%3A3%7C39%3A1
Item number: 220452266141
I was just wondering, if anyone installed this?. Any fitment problems? Seller issues? Shipping problems?
Thanks

+1 the color looks a little off...

I kinda like it with the 2 non aggressive fins...

I think the photo was just cleaned up and that makes it look like a lighter color CF than it really is, maybe?
I don't have this particular one, but I have yet to see one that fits like it should. So far Cannonballs project looks to have the most promise.
From a distance I like mine. Up close it looks like a hack job and is borderline embarrassing. I have pics and video of mine posted a few threads down....

Bought it and returned it. No installation instructions or hardware. It was just a tack on very flimsy diffuser that would take a body shop hours to install if they could do it at all. I'd wait for a manufacturer here locally to make one that is sturdy and we know that it fits right. Just my 2 cents...

Thanks for clarifying that!

Is there a difference in the Euroteck one and this?

IIRC FrankW was saying they get theirs from Taiwan as well.
