Need opinions for my rear!
hey guys , so I'm torn between getting a varis diffuser and keeping my 8 rear , or getting a 9 rear and just getting the standard genuine mitsu diffuser with it (due to money reasons I don't think I'm willing to get 9 rear as well as a varis diffuser) I have attached a couple of photos showing my rear at the moment so I can get some thoughts.
thanks guys

Im not the bumper cover expert, but I believe that JDM rear fits both 8 & 9. Also, there is no diffuser, its all built into the cover

I was asking if it was just rear extenders and not an actual diffuser
