Have you consider the mfactory SMFW? Seems to get positive reviews, I believe its only the lightweight Al SMFW which get major chatter issues...
Would definitely be interesting to see if you can get better prices from the Germany

Just priced up the flywheel from Mfactory from their website:

Mfactory 572 USD = 793.51 AUD
LUK 648.45 USD = 899.56 AUD

Will be a tad higher once you take into account non-ideal conversion rates. Honestly I would rather pay the extra $100 to not worry about chatter.

I have also never driven a lightweight flywheel, does it make the engine more enjoyable and revvier? Coming from my previous car, I find the stock N54 to be pretty free revving to be honest.
