Are the ones you got 150mm or 170mm? I have been in contact with him on a custom order, waiting to hear back, but yours do stick out a bit more than i'd like them to.

Just wondering if you can teach me or others how to install the exhaust hangers, would really appreciate it.
Thanks.
I've had to remove enough over the years that it made sense to spend $15 on a tool like this. With a little lubricant and this tool, they pop right out. You can find them on Amazon.

Very interesting. I'm not sure about how much they stick out, but I like that they'll prevent the exhaust shrouds from flaking off, like it starting to happen with many owners.

Did anyone else notice a significant reduction in exhaust volume after installing the tips? I just had mine put on yesterday and it's much quieter, which is not cool.

Squirble, I am working with your eBay seller. What was the length on the black carbon pair?

I ordered for this guy. they send me the parts but instead of the 60x80thay send 60x90 that doesn't fit. i have been in contact with them multiple time trying to return them. first they told be to take it to UPS. they wanted $300 to ship back to the manufacture that shipped the wrong parts. next went to the USPS they wanted $150 with no guarantee of delivery. they keep telling me they are trying to sell them on FB and Ebay. I'm not happy at all.

make dang sure they get the order correct.

Have your credit card company deal with it. They are refusing to refund/replace a wrong order shipment.

I ordered from the same guy as Squirble and with his exact measurements. 2 weeks later they arrived perfect. I did cut them down a bit to slide in deeper but no issues. Love the look

Thanks for the OP help with the write up and proper hangar, Squirble for the measurements of his tips.

I don't know. Obviously only my opinion. But I think this looks horrible.

Agreed. All these solutions look terrible in my opinion. This rear fascia and outlets are not designed around having these thick walled pipes sticking out of them. Also, as a general rule of thumb, exhaust tips sticking out past the fascia always look bad and its made even worse in his situation when they are "hugged" by that trapezoid outlet. Finally those pipes are way too small for the massive size of this car which adds to the weird look.

The trapezoid outlet itself is supposed to be the "exhaust" tip with the real rips recessed behind it. You are basically putting round pegs into square holes with this design.

In my honest opinion, if you want to make it look good and not tacky/DIY, just buy an M bumper cover which has space for the dual dual setup. Then buy the M sport exhaust off a member here who installed an Akrapovic system and has no use for their OEM exhaust anymore.

It looks good on the trackhawk because it has room. There's nothing hugging them, just open space on the rear fascia. On the M50i it looks so forced since its that trapezoid is supposed to be the "exhaust" and now you're forcing 2 thick, small pipes out of it.

For all those that added the round tips, I like it. BMW fell short, literally, not including them. Everyone that has added them, are they still in place? Has anyone noticed any long term ill side effects from the addition?

The tips on the X7 look so weird and forced. Might as well throw on some Viper stripes.

Thanks I thought about the CM2's also. I kind of like the 5 spoke look of the CM1's I have a good friend that is the rep for the Houston area. they did a photo shoot and video for their web site
