Carbon Fiber exhaust tips

Looking at Alibaba for some exhaust tips for my 22 F95. Any suggestions for the room? Also, what is install process? Do they need to be welded?

Looking at my 23, it appears the tips are a one piece, meaning, they can't be unbolted. However, I am not sure if the tips per se would come off if pounded with a rubber mallet....let's see what others say.

If you look at the BMW installation instructions they have to be cut off.

My brothers F90 screwed off and it looks like mine do the same. Have you replaced yours?

Same on my 2024 X6MC had to be cut and bolted on. Well worth it though!
Attached are the installation instructions.
