Exhaust tail pipe

In case you didn't know it the so call chrome exhaust tips pop off and are made of aluminum.

As you can see from the pictures you can remove them and now have black tips or what I might do is cut of the flare and add my own exhaust tips.

What kind of tips are you thinking of putting back on your G? A different size?

I'm not sure at this point, I need to look around and see what I like and would look good.

Just curious, what didn't you like about the stock tips? Quad tips like the M would look good.

I don't know...I think quad tips would be a little too much (imo). I wouldn't want people confusing my G for an M. Not that there is anything wrong with that...but still. Then again it might look really good. After all BMW's signature for M model (among other things) are its quad tips.

It's not that I don't like them it's just that they are cheap im material. Also the shine could be more chrome like.

I don't know if you could do quads because they is a slight cut out on the underside of the bumper. Sort of made for a single pipe.

Post some pics if you end up changing them out.

Not that good unless maybe you paint them a high gloss black paint.

The floor B&W garage tile is standard with the Platinum Graphite. Didn't you get yours? Sedanman2007 can fix you up with some.

You mean he didn't get his floor with his order? That is a shame!

Here is a better picture.

By the way I sell this flooring.
