My Ride: Alpine White 2007 550i
My 07 550 sport was rear-ended and will need a new exhaust, so I wanted to look into the possibility of putting on the new 08 550 sport exhaust. The bodyshop I am using, a very reputable BMW specialist, says BMW Parts has not been helpful at all. Can anyone give me some help? I am probably going to search my area for an '08 550 sport that I can test drive right over to the shop.
Incidentally, the 07 550 exhaust is on backorder, so they can't get that one either.
note: my apologies for posting this to multiple forums, but the one I started with seems to have crashed and I have a short window of opportunity to get this info.

Is there a better place to ask such questions? I need an answer this morning and google/forum searches are turning up nothing. I found a pic of it but you can't make out the part number.

My Ride: 07' 550i sport; Sapphire Black/Auburn; sport package; steptronic; navigation with R.T.T.I.; heads up; cold weather package; Logic-7; BMW MOST ipod kit; Motorola V3 snap-in adapter; rear heated seats and rear shades; anthracite headliner; sirrius sat. radio; M-aero kit; OEM style 166 Wheels with 245/35-19 front and 285/30-19 rear Michelin PS2s.
If the new sport exhaust is incompatible or unavailable, I would be happy to sell you my OEM exhaust. I installed a Dinan unit on my 07' 550 sport. The exhaust was done at 4,000 miles.
The dealer price for the exhaust is $909.54. Obviously, I would sell it for much less.
Good luck,
DRP

The hamann site doesn't load any information on the exhaust. shows a picture of the tips and no text. This is an insurance repair so probably not going to try to make such a drastic change anyway.

Wow, thanks a lot.
I stopped by a dealership and had their parts guy call up BMWNA and go through the issue with them. The answer I got was that it wouldn't fit. It didn't make a lot of sense. I get the impression that the pipe is larger from the front silencers back, and that maybe it won't bolt on. I figured it would be a full replacement up to the cats so that shouldn't matter. They look identical in the pictures I saw except for the lack of backpressure valve. I am still going to try to find an 08 550 and inspect the exhaust myself, if possible.
May I ask how you were able to find this part # info?
