Cyba vs BMS Exhaust Tips

White340 · 01-18-2016, 07:21 PM

I'm looking to make my exhaust tips more noticeable and it seems that everyone here is using either the BMS or Cyba exhaust tips. I'm looking for a 3.5" Chrome tip and both these companies have similar looking tips in this size/finish. The BMS has a considerable advantage from a pricing perspective, so I'm looking to get opinions from you guys. Are the Cyba tips worth ~$100 more?

Thanks

They're just exhaust tips, there's no advantage to spending 100 dollars more.

Bms makes nice looking tips. I would go with them

BMS fit perfect and look great. Love mine, which they had a 3.5 inch option though!!

Thanks all for your input - I'll go with the BMS tips.

What do you mean? They are 3.5". Do you mean that you wish they had a 4"?

They are 3.5". I'm confused on that comment too. I don't think bigger tips would fit in the bumper

I'm confused about these tips? How different are they than the OEM and why did you change your OEM tips considering the look is the same? Don't get me wrong my OEM tips are annoying me because they are pitted, but isn't the aftermarket tip going to get pitted equally over time?

Look closer, lol. Similar, but not the same.

I meant 4 inch I assume, I have the gloss black tips, so they dont look much bigger than stock, but the polished ones sure do! Might have to switch to that color!

i'd go with BMS tips. Very high quality at an unbeatable price

How the heck do you take off the chrome oem tips? I am pulling on them pretty hard. They are not slip on/off?

Yes they are slip on/off. Put a towel on the back of the tips and use a hammer to "hammer" it off:

I picked the BMS over the Cyba tips bc the BMS were about half the cost.

Thanks! Used a rubber mallet and they were still a pain to get off!

I went with the OEM Black Chrome tips -
