Pics of Dinan Exhaust and Diffusers
I am starting to second guess whether the Dinan quad 2X 4" tips will fit my diffuser. Anyone have this diffuser with Dinan tips? I'd love to see what setup you have regardless. Thanks, going to measure carefully when I get home.

I’ve been on a search for a diffuser that will fit my Remus tips as well. So far I think this is one option that will fit, as it’s the same diffuser opening as OEM except it has the m perf bottom piece stuck on. Since I know the tips fit with the OEM diffuser this should fit too.

I estimate that the quad tips need 8.5" wide and a little over 4" high. The stock trapezoid tips are 8.5 X 3.5 and I have plenty of room around the diffuser cutouts, probably another inch all around.

Yeah I purposely chose this style because I didn't want too aggressive. I like the M5 diffuser on an M5, just wanted a little more conservative for an M550. One of the reasons I also didn't opt for the Pro spoiler. CS is a little more subtle.

And if there's one out there with 9" + width to accommodate 4" tips I'd love to know which one as I've been looking. The one I just sold in the classified I can confirm does not fit, and based on me searching all of them have the same width cut out. |

Hey Joe, this thread is exactly what I've been looking for
I recenty had the Remus system fitted to my 540i. It states that you need the 550i diffuser to accommodate the 4" quad tips. I went to BMW bought the "normal diffuser" and had it wrapped in gloss black. Looking at it on the car, it looks too plain for my liking. I then found that there was an M Performance 550i one. I've seen BMW sell the top piece in matt black and then the bottom piece in Carbon. The Dinan tips look to be the same size as the Remus ones. Do you have a link to where you got yours from, please? It looks like it's all in gloss black too. I've seen this one but will need to have it sprayed in gloss black... https://www.tuningcarbonhoods.co.uk/...mance-550.html

I've been looking for ages online but options are limited as you metioned. The one you have looks like it was made for those tips! Works so well! Thank you, I'm very happy with it, the 4" tips change the look completely! Your car looks awesome from the back! Those LCI lights are a game changer.
