Hey wsup everyone.. I was just wondering if I purchase a 2004 530i B&B Exhaust will it fit correctly on a 2006 model? Thanks

I'm guessing it would because it's actually just a rear muffler and not a whole exhaust system. You can always check with B&B to be sure.

Interesting. Many people on this site have the B&B and they all said it's just a muffler. So does B&B's site:

Did they come out with a full cat-back system? Do you have a picture or link?

I've seen B&B mufflers being referred to as cat back, but they're just mufflers, with a foot or so of pipe--here's the 530i/545i muffler:
