Dual vs. Quad

I know that tips are 100% asthetic and do not affect performance or the exhaust's respective note. However, I just wanted to see how many of you would prefer quad tips vs. the traditional 335i dual tips. I am getting exhaust on Tuesday and need feedback before then. So, if you can please let me know what you guys would prefer. I am thinking of either 4" dual tips or 3" quad tips. Please leave some feedback. And thanks beforehand!

Yeah I thought the same thing about trying to look like an M3, but I went with quads anyways because I think it looks different from other 335. Also it looks so much better.

I like the looks of the quad exhaust as well.. What does an e90 sedan owner need to buy for the bottom instead of cutting the bumper?

If you can pull it off clean the quads look good. It might be m3 poser-ish to a degree, but as long as you dont badge your car as an M3 (which ive seen ugh) its fine.
