closing the loop on this one, ended up cutting out the pipes and running a straight fitted pipe which worked out perfectly, I wanted them to pop out more thats why i did that, but I could have just cut the pipe to make it fit, they would have been pushed in more, its a preference thing I guess.

That said, I did end up welding the bracket on, the brackets are high quality but with the road conditions and heat, they might come loose, or worse (stolen) so it was a good decision to make. I will work on my M4 tomorrow.

Thx for your help guys

I don't know how fitment will work out, but may be worth looking in case anyone was still looking for BMS tips - a set is FS in the F80 forum.

Thanks a ton for pointing this out. I just ordered the set from Australia that someone mentioned in that thread. $256 US. I'm guessing they won't be here for a while, but I will report back with full details once I get them. Think I have already bought $1500 worth of parts and I've never even seen the 2017 X5M I bought yet. Should arrive from TN in 7-10 days. Can't wait.

Jealous lol. I've been really contemplating trading my Cayman for a X5M - needing that final push to bite the bullet. Definitely check in with more details

I replaced my stock tips with matte black ones. I regret the mod. Gloss black ones look much better!

Here is what I had done on Saturday. That is one of the stock tips. This is nothing like my F80 M3. So weird. They had to be cut and an extension was made with carbon tips. The inlet side is 2.5" and my outlet/finisher is 4". Its perfect.

Nice. Must have been challenging to get everything aligned properly. Looks great.
