Nice NYC crowd! I'm selling my black kidneys, got them from Trinity Autosport for $60. Been on car exactly 1 month (i have the emails showing when i purchased them from Eloy) but switching out for high gloss kidneys. $40 and local meet since we're both Queens.
Jayce-I'm looking into dual single custom exhaust like E9x's and F series but if I don't go that route and this works, ill join u and maybe we can do group buy discount or at least on install.

My MagnaFlow Experience
I have the MagnaFlow Exhaust Products 16553 Stainless Steel Cat-Back Performance Exhaust System that I purchased from Amazon last year. Although I have received compliments from those that have heard it from the outside, I can say the thing drones. I had a Corsa exhaust for my 335i that was great and had no drone, so the MagnaFlow is a bit annoying in that matter. I installed this back in June and I am not so displeased that I will change it, but if I had to do it over again, I might have saved my coins for a different brand.

Well, the dual look is achievable while being operational like tonyb635 (btw, nice thread and beautiful set up, sorry to hear about the drone). The trick is based on the rear of the E60 stock or body M5/M Tech bumper, what kind of single tips do you use to fill out the exhaust cut-outs and what type of bumper modification do you need to fill in the whole a bit more? Do you go for wide oval tips, square (I don't think this will work based on the round and aggressive nature of the rear of the E60) or just larger 3" tips?
I certainly want an exhaust with a deeper and throatier tone, but just slightly louder than stock but the single left side bothers me.
