I will share the steps so you can also DIY .

One of the hardest part of the project was removing the most awkward design tips. They are welded and Oe tips needs to be cutted. After that you have welding mess around which needs to be grinded. After that you can use band saw to cut within 5 min.

What i found helpful is to use a zip tie to mark your cutting points. The points i marked are based on the inner diameter of my Tips. They are few mm more sticking out than oem tips but looks definitely larger than the oem tips.



Opening the box pretty easy. Try to cut the top part closer to edges. Do not go all the way end otherwise you will be cutting the inner piece which is not advised. I cut from 3 point. If i would do it again i would cut from 4 corner and take the piece out so i wouldnt have to bend back and align again.

As a note, Each perforated pipe double sided. One on the top, the other one on the bottom. Instead of cutting the both top and bottom of the muffler, i have done something better which i got the idea from someone on the forum but i dont know his handle so i cant tag him but i do know he has an X6m

So what i did is, i cut the perforated part and reach at the bottom side. Then i welded proper size pieces there then welded another piece on the top part.

After that i closed the box with my terrible welding skill, But hey it was my first time and it did the JOB!



After all i painted the box in black with a little touch :

I do produce this Tips and they are specifically made for F85 X5M and F86 X6M. These are 1 of 1 in the market for 2 reason.

1- They have hidden upwards clamps which is not visible when you look under the vehicle.

2- They also have a slanted option just like Factory cut. And can be purchased [COLOR="Blue"]here[/COLOR]



Final Results :



Another OEM+ mode succesfully done. Enjoy!

Looks good , What size the CF tips? 3.25" ? Do you have the link for purchase, thanks
