Did you install that yourself? If so, how much of a pain was it and were you able to get the rear parking sensors level (i.e. not pointed downwards)?

yeah I installed it myself.

It wasnt bad actually, I just had to drill out the 4 rivets which took like 15 secs each. Then slowly pull out one side of the OEM diffuser to pop out all of the tabs. Then pop the CF diffuser in and drill screws where the rivets used to be.

The sensors are reacting differently now which I will have to figure out how to fix. Its giving me constant beeping when reversing even though I'm not close to anything.

Having the same issue with mine and it's the same style as yours. I've gotten used to it at this point. It's very random too.

I've had one of those diffusers sitting in my garage for months since I noticed that the shape of it makes it look like the parking sensors are going to be angled toward the ground instead of pointing straight back how it is on the OEM piece.

I've been trying to come up with a way to mount them better to avoid the issue you seem to now be having. Haven't come up with anything yet.

Yeah I kinda pushed the left one in today while trying to see if I can turn it. I may have to take the diffuser off and Gorilla Glue it down.

Ebay, lowest I could find the actual CF direct replacement for was $145

Love it even more than the E63s but just can't stand the NAV screen, looks way out of place.
