Looks good Boneca I am surprised you didn't jump on the front lip train as well. Are those new wheels 22's ? It probably says somewhere but while I am posting might as well as

You have done some nice things to your car!

Ahh nice.. I am liking the 22's for the first time because of the ride. 21's probably respond a little more aggressively. Well it looks great.. Keep it up. You could buy a new X5 with what you are spending on your enhancements.. I think you are getting your moneys worth for sure.

Looks like a well thought out approach you did. If I remember right you got yours a couple weeks before I did so it's fresh !!

It's not my first rodeo so yes I put some thought in to it

I assume you meant to say new X5M not quiet but I might approach that territory when I'm "done"

for me this makes sense as this is the only way I know

Hi there, it seems many ppl interested in these tail pipes, I don't blame you it took me some time to find these after checking other options discussed at some threads which I didn't like.

I have replied to couple of PMs but I will leave a note here so its visible to anyone interested:

Cargraphic is the German based company that makes these (kits) you can find them on Google and eBay

I'm kinda embarrassed as I paid way too much for these, more than $1k (but at the end its my money)

The quality is awesome, as I mentioned earlier it's a kit (pipes and tips) but fit not that great even though they say it's a G05 direct bolt on.



We made it work but I wouldn't recommend them just because it's too expensive



Look for universal tips on eBay or AliExpress and go to an exhaust shop to fit them, you'll be better off for more than half the price.

p.s. I took the diffuser, rear bumper trim, heat shields, bottom covers, plastic covers and original "tips" before going in to muffler shop, it was much quicker this way

these tips are 100mm diameter, I believe you can go up to 110mm

Wow 1k? Yea i search all over online but the tip for 40i are oval so its hard to find one that fit. I dont know the size of the original single oval tip is either. Not round so its hard to measure. Bummer

I don't think you will find anything that will just slide on to the existing tip, as I mentioned look for universal tips online and get them installed in the shop.
