I ordered the other diffuser (OEM style) from the same seller. Great communication, Benny (the seller) answered my 20 questions. Package just arrived today and here are some pictures. I will get it installed this week as well.
Sorry for the crappy pix, I send it to my office so i had to use the phone cam.

AMG,
Do you think the big fins could cause any negative driving issues at higher speeds compared to the stock setup?
I'm sure my question borders on rediculous, but with all the engineering that goes into our cars, just wondering if the aero-dynamics could be affected by the bigger fins?
And are the bigger fins even functional?
Thanks

Even the OEM diffuser is more for aesthetics rather then improved aerodynamics.
You will however notice a slight difference in down force with a trunk lid spoiler depending on the angle. Same goes with a front lip, depending on the style and angle its shaped at.

Agreed, the OEM diffuser fins are just too small to do anything besides appear--too small.

@midnightfang: Your diffuser looks different from the one posted on the ebay link. Either that or it's way too late and my eyes are playing tricks on me? lol
