It's your car, so go for it if you like it. I'd do it with my car ('05 525i) if it wasn't so expensive. Once you figure in the cost for the exhaust and bodywork/paint you're probably looking at a pretty expensive modification, even if it's only for looks.
+1 F* what every body else think about it negatively!

Definitely go for the dual exhaust. It'll look awesome. I went the same route and got mufflers from ebay, magnaflows.

But ou're going to have a problem with the muffler being on the passenger side. This muffler you posted up won't fit. You have to get a slim muffler because your battery box and spare tire will be in the way of your exhaust.

There's a lot of posts for dual exhaust conversion. hmm... I think Bimmer 32 started a post for all quad tip exhaust.


Good luck, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Thanks for your help! Would you happen to have the part numbers for both magnaflow mufflers? I want to make sure I get the right ones.
