So I just noticed that folks are selling CF rear diffusers for the "M" bumper already setup for quads:
https://5series.net/forums/topic/103...-diffuser-new/

I haven't decided if I'm going to get a 550i w/ the OEM M kit or a 535i w/o the kit. If I get a 550i with the OEM M bumper can I just replace the diffuser instead of replacing or modifying the bumper? If so are there any that arn't CF so they would look close to factory?

1) Yes you can.
2) Yes there is. In several shops.

Great, good to know! I'll do some Google-fu to try and find one (didn't find one on Trinity's site), but let me know if you know of any shops in particular that sell these online that are not CF.

Are you from Europe, America or possibly Asia?

edit: Allright allright... Australia, Africa?

Sorry I don't know any vendor there. I could have point out couple of sellers here in Europe, but the shipping costs would be insane.

I'm sure others will chime in.
