Not a DIY, then?
It's not a "bolt on" The old muffler has to be cut off and the magnaflow has to be welded on since it is technically a universal muffler. Trust me I have installed many exhaust systems myself including headers that don't require any welding. You can't do this yourself with a magnaflow. For $100 bucks or less it's worth it!

No. Not unless you own an exhaust shop

My Ride: 2007 530i
all i can say is wow....i got the magnaflow exhaust 14862 this past friday and had it installed the same day.....it sounds incredible....like everyone says, it has the nice deep tone to it...unfortunately i had a family member that wants to purchase my car but he doesn't want the exhaust on it. i'm having the stock exhaust put back on it and the magnaflow is no use for me now....its in perfect condition and already has the adapter welded on it for a perfect fit...if anyone is interested please PM me or give me a call at 903-513-6297
