Super cheap catback exhaust (with video clip)

I was on the hunt for a catback exhaust but i didn't want to spend the typical 1000 dollars that everything on the market costed so i decided to do a super cheap custom catback. I am not saying that you will get near the performance or quality out of something like this as you would with a bmwpe, or supersprinter etc. but for the cost i am extremely pleased with the sound and performance of it. Disima tips- 160
2 magnaflow mufflers-150
2.5 inch stainless steel piping from cat back and install cost-200
all said and done cost me around 500 installed, a absolute steal compared to other exhausts on the market. Once again I'm not saying it compares to other exhaust on the market but if you are looking for a cheap alternative i think it is a great option.
let me know your thoughts on my set up.
(Video clip to show you sound on N55 2011 335 also catless dps)

For about 200$ more i would get the VRSF exhaust.
But good job on having the courage to invest in your own exhaust set up.

^ Maybe but it's been on back order for over 4 months and still has a few more months to go before the revision is done.

Nice job OP. Sounds good, how's the drone on highway though?

Why is this in the N54 section? Sounds much nicer than stock, I like it.

I think I am running the same mufflers on my N54, the tone is pretty nice but for some reason my car loves to vibrate at low rpms. I get drone around 2.5-4k and it gets pretty annoying.
