Unfortunately I had someone bump my 2008 550i Sport in the rear. The damage was minor and it is in the shop now but I noticed that the twin tail pipes are not even. The right tail pipe extends about 1/2" further and I could have sworn they extended the same distance before.

So, could someone with a 2008 550i sport please take a look at the twin exhaust pipes to see if they extend the same amount? I need to tell the body shop if they need to fix this or not.

Thanks,

-Ray

No, they are not supposed to be even. Mine are not as well. I had thought the same thing until I looked at them closely about a week ago. They are staggered a bit.

DrLev is correct, they are staggared so it looks like the body shop installed correctly...
