OK guys, here are my pics of my installed diffuser. I have posted more pics of my baby in the pics thread.
After I finished the installation I made the following findings;
1. Affect to performance because of extra weight of the diffuser = 0%
2. Downforce produced by the diffuser = 0%.
3. Grin factor each time you look at that rear end now = 100%
4. Uplift factor to overall appearance of the vehicle = 100%

AMG055,
The diffuser looks really !
The exhaust on the passenger side looks like it needs to be centered in the opening ? Is it just the photo ?

Yes, no need to take the diffuser off. Just put the screw, I would use 2. Right above the exhaust tips. Like Kens installer did. However, he only put 1 there. But I would use 2. Just press the diffuser flush, then drill the hole and put a self tapping screw in, or a nut and bolt. Droping the exhaust may be required to do this.
The screws I used were Black AuvecoPak AP11792 #10x1" Tapping Screws. Just pre-drill with smaller tiny bit to start the hole, then use bit slightly smaller then Tapping screw for final hole.
I did do a search for other Black AuvecoPak Tapping screws and they also have #10x3/4 and the smaller #8x3/4; which might be better. #10x1" is a bit long.
I put in two screws spaced evenly on each side as suggested.
Love the look, ain't going back..

Has anyone had this happen or seen this on their diffuser, mine has only been on for a few weeks and I see the discoloration, tried a spit clean as I just noticed this yesterday but it is not from a scratch and the surface feels smooth seems like it may be inside the clear coat.

Could you please email me the pictures and your name so that I may look up your order. I am also assuming that this was purchased directly from Euroteck?
