By coincidence (or not ) I passed by 2 OG M2's this evening. The N55 sounds so good! Loved the burbles! Much nicer sound than my 340 mppsk. Really anxious to hear the M2c...

Remove it and the car is officially not legal to be driven, because it does not comply to the emission rules in force in Europe right now. MR |

Which means any option that cuts out the OPF is going to be a problem once the car is 3/4 years old and due an MOT. |

If you want to know the OPFs are the two little things in between the mid damper and the downpipes, but they look a lot different than on that photo. Shape is different. MR |

I assume the M2c is also shorter. Makes perfect sense that the OPF would be inside those things right before the damper I marked. |

Looks so much better. Great way to hide the muffler.

I used rustoleum high temp engine enamel (matte) and painted the underside (everything you can possible paint without taking the exhaust off) just be sure to tape it up really well.

I don't mind re applying. Just needs to be done for the time being until other exhausts come out. Do you have a better solution?

Thats an OG M2; Muffler wont be near the ground; M2 OGs arent pregnant with muffler.

Freakin great idea !! Maybe taking it as off and having it powder coated would be a permanent solution ?
