Oval exhaust tip conversion for 4.4i X5's

Post by PhilUK » Thu Sep 20, 2012 12:16 pm

In case anyone else was wanting to do the same, I have just tracked down an ebay seller offering retrofit oval exhaust tips that simply fix over the standard 4.4i quad pipes giving that 4.6is/4.8is look.

I may invest unless anyone else has found a better alternative for similar outlay?  8)

Do they fit onto the 4.4's quad pipes?

It looks like the old tailpipe piece needs cutting off before this will fit?
