Will update forum on quality. Total package $900 from Alibaba. Surely don't expect OEM quality. |

unboxed the exhaust. It's lighter than I expected!
There is unfortunately a dent in the muffler inlet. I think it should be easy enough to straighten out by the installer since a clamp goes over that section. Thoughts? Don't want to have to deal with returning it for a replacement etc....

I think you will love the Exhaust sound. I certainly do and still do after 3 years.
I pay attention to other Msport X5 35i's and I can barely hear any exhaust notes at all. The MPE makes noises and you can hear it in the cabin but to me it isn't obnoxious since I feel like the F15 cabin dampens the outside noise fairly well. Check out my video here start at 2:25 to hear a warm start and revs. vs. warm start without MPE

OK yah, I think it should be fairly easy to straighten out anyways and it looks like the clamp slides over a good portion of that pipe.
I think I've actually watched most of your MPE videos on YouTube already. Partially what sold me on ordering it

You should ask for a discount. I know this stuff happens, and it's tough being a pest for something so small, but package must have had a flaw. |

https://www.facebook.com/darwinproaero/ They have a wing here in NJ, but I got it straight from China. They have good reviews on ebay for fitment. Quality TBD I guess. With the cold weather in Northern MI, they will be tested. Here's pic they sent me. |

That actually looks OK. I’ve been quoted £3k for the BMW kit, and am really questioning if it’s worth it. Especially as it can’t be removed once fitted, and I’ll probably change the car after 18 months.
