JCW 210 vs GP 218 air diverter?

Hi guys,

Does someone know if there's a difference between the air diverters (under the bonnet) from a JCW 210 and a GP218 (both R53)?

I'm asking, since i know the GP IC's are bloody rare and i was wondering if the air diverter is absolutely necessary to run it efficiently.
I've had the full conversion from a 210 to 218 (intercooler, software, suspension, brakes, etc.) and only the air diverter is still missing, IF it's any different...
I don't prefer to run an aftermarket part, since i want to keep stock look as much as possible!

Thanks!

Apparently the stock underbonnet air diverter can be trimmed ...
