Right definitely in that case, but suppose someone is already running the M performance diffuser. Getting the M2 diffuser + paying a pro, will probably come out cheaper than ordering one from Germany.
If you convert 800 euros + shipping to US (I am going to say a conservative estimate of about 120 euros, you are looking at probably close to 1200 all said and done.
You can buy a brand new M2 diffuser and M perf diffuser for about $450. Lets say labor for a shop and painting another $500, and it plants you at about $950 US all said and done.
In your case, you made 2, but I would venture a guess you could probably sell your first proto for a couple hundred to recoup some of the funds
I am sure someone in here will snatch it up.
