Magnaflow 4" Tips Installed (Pics)

bmwstylexx · 03-30-2011, 04:04 PM

Purchased these last week and got them installed today. Am pleased with the visual changes to the rear. I wanted a rear apron but never could find one that utilized the dual exhaust (everything was quad) and I didn't want to go that route. I also didn't want to spend a grand on a mtech rear.... so i went this route. Only $50 bucks to install. They stick out a bit more than I want but nothing ghetto so I'm pleased.

Will look even better once I get my rear spoiler on.. but that will be another week or two.

Did you put them on over the old ones?

They were welded on. They're about 1/2 inch too far but looks far better in person than in the pics. From Straight on looks much better.

No. the old ones had to be cut off, then these were welded on.

Looks a bit Xbox Need For Speed like cartoonish in my opinion...sorry. They also look like they are on top of the old ones. Get them shortened and they will look LOADS better. Just my 0.02.

Nice add. How do they sound?

XDEEDUBBX · 03-30-2011, 10:19 PM

i agree, they are sticking out a bit too much, but if you like it no problem.

I love need for speed.... lol

They are a huge improvement to stock. While, I would like them a bit shorter, I'm not going to pay to have them cut off and rewelded for half an inch. The old ones were cut off and are in a box in the garage so no going back now.

Sound is no different, other than the exhaust valve being open all the time now.

when i had my Dimisa tips put on at the shop the guy wasnt clear as to where he would mount the new tips. he put them on and they looked like the way yours came out. i wasnt happy but i figured i'd live with it. a day later i said fu*ck this i'm going back to get these put on right he wasnt clear at all. well, i got there and they took them off and welded them closer to the butterfly flap and it looks soooo much better, not only that but they didnt charge me. they wanted my business and they knew they werent clear on how they were going to be mounted so they did it for free. maybe your guy will do the same.
