Subaru Rear Diffuser Kit. Anyone have one, pics etc.?

Saw this on the Subaru site (can't link to it) in the build your car section and of course the picture is too small to actually see.

Anyone have one yet? Have pics? Care to share?

Thanks in advance!!!

except the US version has the smaller exhaust tips causing it to look as if there is too much space between the diffuser and diffuser kit.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it's probably 99% just for looks. I seriously doubt the car is gaining any down force or aero advantage with this thing.

Would pretty much need the larger tips to look good, I think, but with them, it would be not bad.

The pic above with the HKS exhaust does help a ton. But $7XX.00 dollars? Doesn't look like carbon fiber or anything right?
