Carbon Diffusor plus Titanium exhaust tips

Guys could you do me a favour? I currently have the M Performance exhaust installed plus Titanium exhaust tips and i am thinking of adding the Carbon Diffusor. Only I can't find pictures where someone did this before so I could check if it looks nice. All I can find are pictures where people installed the Carbon exhaust tips but I like my Titanium ones so would like to keep them.
Please help me out with some pictures!

That's nice thanks, but I'd like a real picture from a real person without perfect light and angle of view like this promo pic

Check these out, I think the CF diffuser makes the rear end of the car. I wasn't a big fan of the OEM diffuser.

I'm sure you know what i meant even if my English is not perfect. Would be much more accurate for me to speak German but I guess you wouldn't understand one single word.

That photo is CGI... So no real person behind a camera, no real lightning. All fake.

Normally I am not proud of my English, but in comparison to your German I can say: yes!

The one thing I dislike with the Ti tips is that they are smaller than the CF tips. Makes them look a bit worse in my opinion.

Exactly my concern. With the normal part from the bumper they look awesome! However the diffusor adds to the look and maybe the tips then look a bit lost...

Yes, my thought exactly. It is made for the bigger CF tips so too much room around the tips.

I had the titanium on my PE M2, added the cf diffuser, and there was something off about the look, switched to cf tips, much better now.

Is there nothing we can do to make the Ti tips look larger? My only problem with them is they look very skinny.

Disregard my last comment. The titanium tips are beautiful and very reminiscent of the E36/46 M3's exhaust tips.
