Your exhaust pipe is supposed to go outside the perforated part. Does it not fit inside? You should be able to push them all the way in.

If not, I know a guy on ebay that sells really good China tips simular to what you have. They fit well on my MPE. He's in the US as well, so shipping is fast.

I didn't think to put the exhaust pipe between the two layers. I just figured the exhaust pipe should go on the inside. Will try and report back. I think there should be enough clearance.

Good luck! Fitment can be tricky on those China made tips, but if you can get them to fit you save a fortune over OEM.

Where did you get your diffuser and how much was it? How was the install?

Anyone know any good black 90mm tips? From ebay or whatever

Not sure if talking to me, but I have an MP diffuser, installed by the previous owner.

I have these:

They fit my MPE quite well.

The seller is super nice and helped me make sure I was getting the right size I needed. As I said, he's in the US. He has other sizes, you might find what you're looking for.

Hey guys, I figured I'd add my two cents. I purchased mine from Alibaba. Here's the link to the specific supplier:

https://www.alibaba.com/product-deta...1f843e5fdCLl0J

Overall, I'm very happy with my choice. I'm currently running these tips on the stock exhaust. Shipping was fast and you can choose which finish you want (matte CF or not, and brushed or polished steel). I went with the gloss CF and brushed steel. They also have dimensions that fit the MP exhaust or stock. You just need to let them know what dimensions you want.

So far after 8 months no discoloration on the CF. I'm happy with it.

What dimensions did you order for the stock exhaust? I have the MP CF diffuser as well and was thinking of going flat for the tips, but seeing your photo makes me think I should go glossy to match.

Did you install your diffuser? How hard was it?did you need to remove any exhaust pieces or you able to install without moving anything?

Bought the 2017 preowned in November with 5300 miles on it and a whole bunch of MP cosmetic bits installed by the prior owner, including the diffuser. So, no personal experience. There is a pretty good DIY thread at https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1251530

[chalbs]

I posted a picture in my original post, but if for some reason you don't see it let me know and I can try to post another one.

The dimensions for stock exhaust are: 70-92-115mm. 70mm is where the tips mount to the exhaust, 92mm is the tip opening, and 115mm is the length of the whole tip. I originally wanted the matte as well but they only had gloss in stock at the time. Overall, I'm really happy with it as it matches the diffuser perfectly.

As for the diffuser, it wasn't too hard to do. Follow the DIY guide outlined above. During removal of the stock diffuser, the clamps in the center were a pain to pop off and took some effort/time. I didn't need to remove anything on the exhaust to replace the diffuser.

In communication with this seller, can you confirm what you paid? I am getting quoted $55 per tip despite the <$50 price cap, also how long did the order take to arrive? Thanks for sharing the link, they look to be good quality!

Out the door after shipping, etc. I paid $289 for all 4. Shipping took about 1.5-2 weeks. They used DHL for shipping. There was a hiccup with my address, it was incorrectly input, but it got cleared up easily and only delayed delivery 1 or 2 days.

I'm happy with the quality overall, still looks great after 8 months and 4k miles. The brushed steel definitely absorbs some of the exhaust soot, but it cleans fairly easily. I think any brushed steel material would do the same.

Installing is easy, removing the original is a PITA

Do you have a link to the one you bought?

Any tips on removing the stock one?

[TT1351]

Mine was an M perfrpormance diffuser, I searched this forum for tips, was a while back, so I don't know which specific thread it was. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.
