Does anyone make a good sounding exhaust that fits the factory dual exhaust opening for a 2006 550i? All I can find is quad exhaust and I don't want to change the whole rear body panel.

RPI, Remus, magaflows, RD Sport are some to check out. Most members on the board have exhausts that I named.

I have the Remus on my 2008. It's a nice deep tone without being too loud.
Check out Remus Exhaust and Sound Clip

Its not as off-center as it looks in the pics although I think my dealer did miss-align it a bit.

RPi only has an exhaust for the 530i and 525i.

I would be more than willing to donate my 535i for the test vehicle.

sounds good, but the tips stick out too much.
