Hey guys,
In the interest of all things sharing and custom mods, I thought I would post some pictures of my custom diffuser before I installed it.

I was able to score those screws. I like the look much better. I'm gonna use these smaller, rivet-like screws for the exhaust bits and save the other ones for the centerpiece. I have a design slightly different than Garrett's and Chris'. At the place where I got it (Fastenal, which also has the website fastenal.com), they told me that they also have these screws in black.
