Oh yeah, if you're on that side of the bay, it makes more sense to swing by their shop and take a look at it on the Z4M they have there. Much more convenient.

I think the fins look much better if they all point straight down instead of "fanning" out.

I think the same, The Photoshop one looks epic but also looks harder to achieve. I would buy one too for a good price, but I think I'm just go buy the one from the first picture at the moment. I really like how it looks in Devious21 Roadster.

Also the one on the white car and the one on my car are the same part. I think if it looks like they are "fanning out" on the white car, it's just the lighting. All those fins are straight down to my knowledge.

That's just a trick of the lighting.
Here's what it looks like with poor, but even, lighting.

And here's how I mounted it, if you missed the other thread.

here's a better angle, will tell my buddy if he can take some quality pics with our 6D camera outdoors, it's really quite subtle but definitive at the same time.

See if he can adjust his exhaust while he's at it.

I thought these three were the most appropriate.

Let me know your thoughts!

I like #3 and then #2. Looks pretty good!

How would they attach on the other side? I assume this is a full replacement for the current differential plastic diffuser underneath? What sort of cost are you thinking and time frame to turn around building?

A diffuser for the M would be awesome. I had a CF HKS Kansai diffuser on my STi and I loved it. It even incorporated a muffler cutout. I would like to see something like this for the M - it was one of my favorite things I ever did to my STi. I didn't 100% like cutting my bumper up to fit it, but once it was on I knew I would never take it off anyways so it didn't matter. Here are a couple of (semi low quality, sorry) pictures for reference:
