This will help you. In this thread OP installed the tips and he lost One.I have the same tips installed on my 2019 50i around same time.It's a perfect fit and look very aggressive. After reading OP lost One of his tips, I drilled small hole through all tips including the one on SAV to secure them with small screw. They don't rattle and don't move.Problem solved.

Thank you. I just ordered 4 of the tips from Amazon...roughly 23 bucks a pop and will try your idea of drilling a hole. My other thought was to use a little JB Weld on the tip when installing it and letting it bond overnight. Only issue with that is taking it off at a later date. |

My G05 is leased. Any modification i do it has to be cost effective and must be easily removable especially if it's non OE, just in case BMW does not accept it at the lease end.
When few of us started doing this mod. the vendor jacked up the price to well over $30. $23 is normal price. |

X5 friends,
As I stated prior on March 5, my M Sport came with gloss black tips from the factory so I have nice black powder coated stainless steel tips that just arrived from China that I paid $37.10 for with shipping I would be happy to sell to any of you for cost and get in the mail for quick delivery? PM me for me to send you a picture or email me at clkkelley@inserra.com |

My exhaust came from the factory with the powder coated black exhaust trim like the photo above, nothing to do with add-on actual tips some other folks are doing. Sorry if I confused. Last edited by OMAHAX5; 03-17-2020 at 08:56 PM.. |

Bought the stick-on from Amazon and must say the built feels solid and legit. For $30 and took me 10mins or less, I would say go for it.
I added on heavy-duty heat/water resistance double-sided tape to ensure that they stick on well. In addition, wiped down and cleaned the existing chrome pipes with alcohol to remove any dirt/grime. Fit is perfect for the G06 although it says only for G05 and G07 - I took the risk and bought it for the G06 as they look similar. It has been couple of days and having been through rain and heat, they seem to be holding on well so far ... fingers-crossed! Only gripe is similar to what has already been pointed out - the extra bar to make it AMG-wannabe; would have been perfect had it been exact shape as the original. |

Another one to permanent ignore. Excellent contribution.

For the record, I've long since (well over a year) debadged the car fully since my mods make it somewhat not quite a stock G05, but I like the M badging pics as they reliably collect the most moronic posters for my ignore collection. Keep it coming, it's very efficient.
