Are you trying to change the tip to different color or different shape?
Also, is your X6 is the 35i or 50i?

Non M Sport, use rubber mallet and hit it from the back. It will slip off.

Oh, I thought you just want to change color.
If you are going to change to aftermarket tips, I can't help you with that.
I thought you want to take it off to get them painted different color.
I only can help you with changing to OEM M Performance square tips.

Will the 50i tips slip off if I hit them with a mallet also. My tips need to get painted I think. I don't want to do the car wrap method.

As I mentioned, use a rubber mallet to take them off the car.
Paint it, then re-install them.

Seems like best for you to let a shop to do it.

What is the size of the stock exhaust pipe once the tip is removed from a X6 35ix F16?

Looking for a clamp on tip that has a larger outlet but will have the correct inlet to clamp the stock exhaust piping.

Thanks!
