I guess it's a hit or miss . . some members say fitment was spot on, while others seem to have bad fitment.

My question is: since these M2 exhausts are all manufactured the same, how can there be differences in terms of fitment?

Bad or no quality control. For that price, they may just have the exhaust made and shipped with no one or something checking over the final product.

I haven't experienced the drone yet. The sound is a tad bit lower than tanabe. I would say it has a deeper growl

If you tweak it, will you have problem putting stock exhaust back on later ?

You're going to be tweaking the hangers on the muffler itself, not the car. So yes, you will be able to put the stock muffler back on.

If you do not know how to do it, I would advise you to take it to a shop. They only charge 40-80$ depending on how much they charger per hour.
I paid 60$ in SoCal but that was because I knew the guy.
I'll post some pics up sometime this week when I'm not busy

Is M2 exhaust fitted for 11' is250 ??
Most sellers on ebay show it is for 6-10 but some sellers said it is fitted for 11.
I want to make sure it fits my car.

Yes it will fit. Those years use the same exhaust. They just have not updated it. You still may have to adjust the mufflers as the exhaust does not fit the best.
