Anyone have M5 muffler on 550 w/stock MSport diffuser?

Title says it all, does anyone have the F10 M5 mufflers on a 550i with the stock M Sport Diffuser? I want to run this setup on my car with 3.5" dimisa tips. Want to know if I will run into any unexpected fitment issues using the stock diffuser, dont really want to change the diffuser as I like it.

I have an M5 complete exhaust set up. And using stock M5 tips along with 550 diffuser. I think there is plenty of space to put bigger tips if you want.

should work with OEM M5 mufflers and M5 diffusion as the M5 outlet for tips is more inboard than on the OEM 550i. That's the biggest problem when trying to retrofit the 550i with the M5 diffuser..aligning the tips outlets correctly. Some exhausts work and some don't. Its trial and error as well as some recon out there amongst those who have done it previously.

thanks, but I'm not trying to change my diffuser, I want to keep my stock 550i MSport diffuser, just want to change the exhaust can to the M5 ones and change the tips to 3.5" Dimisa ones.

The 550 has that rear cat on it are you guys cutting that out and using that section of exhaust from the m5 or are you leaving that rear cat in and just using the mufflers from the m5 please advise.
