I'm looking to purchase a brand new Magnaflow 14816 style muffler from a current forum member. Can anyone tell me how hard this would be to install on a 04 545i? Do I need to think about purchasing any additional items with this? If someone can point me in the direction of step by step DIY for this I would be grateful

It's not a bolt-on, but if you have the equipment (tools) and
experience to weld, you should be fine. Otherwise, it would
be a $80 well spent at your local muffler shop for installation.

Got mine put on a couple months ago and took it to a muffler shop. They cut the stock and welded the new one on and thats it. Took them about 20 mins to do and price should be around $60 to 80. GL and post some pics and video when your done.......
