This is the one I have. I got 3 total (all different vendors) before I settled on this one because I definitely was after near fitment perfection. It's more expensive than others, but it's made in Taiwan (vs China) and very well worth it (for me at least). To my delight, came in a wooden crate vs just a cardboard box The fitment is 99.9% perfect. I ended up painting over the CF because I wanted the M5 look. The center is plasti-diped because I haven't mastered 2-tone paint and wanted a matte look to give it depth.

haha you know what - I think I have the exact same diffuser. Mine is still CF though.. Maybe i'll paint it like yours, def gives it some depth vs. being one color. I might try doing it myself using https://www.automotivetouchup.com/ I've seen videos, the 2k Clearcoat is the secret I think.
