Custom Exhaust

P 5UML · 03-12-2013, 07:25 AM

guys

getting my car in for a custom exhaust @ MIJ Performance

my car is a 325D at the moment but i am getting the 335 exits done

just wanted some opinions on the tips! see what you guys think

original tips on a 335 are 3" and look tiny compared to the cutouts on the diffuser

there are a various array of different sizes tips so just unsure what size to go for,

so 3 questions for you guys

- what size tips you reckon would look good
- what colour tips? chrome, matt black, burnt blue
- shall i have the exhausts petruding from the diffuser? if so then by how much?

i have an idea of what i want done, but always good to see what peoples opinions are!

100% go for a 4" tip, off the car they look too big but when on the car they sit perfect in the diffuser. Colour wise its personal opinion. I would have the tips pertruding by a few mm especially if they are slashed. They will look lost if they are not perftruding abit.

This will transform the rear of your car

Would say what skelts said. 4inch tip. I was personally thinking about this, mind inboxing me the quotes you got for the whole conversion?

Chrome or matt black, but not flame burnt.

Josh1a1h · 03-12-2013, 09:06 AM

Def 4" tips with chrome finish if you actually want to see them.

Don't have them protrude much. Just a little further out than the diffuser.

I can't wait to see how they turn out. Where are you getting your rear diffuser from?

4" tips for the win

smoked · 03-12-2013, 02:05 PM

4" is a must!

MIJ did mine, but i provided Cyba black chrome tips. Great guys, just wish i'd got them to take the rotten rattly CAN flap out at the same time

Theivz · 03-12-2013, 03:00 PM

hey mate
agree with above 4" at least lol. mine are 3.5 each and i think they look small
they shouldn't protrude too much...

FRG · 03-12-2013, 03:59 PM

4" chrome, protruding a tiny bit and slashed at the exact same angle as the diffuser if possible. That'd be my choice anyway

I have to agree

Not exact same angle as the diffuser - but as close as I could get

Drrncour · 03-12-2013, 05:18 PM

Plus one on the 4" tip, pic above is lush

gman3msport · 03-12-2013, 06:51 PM

Yep deffo 4" chrome with slash back sticking out a couple of mm more than your diffuser. That will look the dogs danglies.

Woody80 · 03-12-2013, 07:18 PM

What type of diffuser have you gone for? A standard 335 one or the performance diffuser?

Being lazy..... Have you got the part no for the diffuser. I tried searching the BMmini site to no avail

HeavyRightFoot · 03-13-2013, 05:57 AM

Deffo 4" tips.

Jat · 03-13-2013, 06:02 AM
