My Ride: 2005 BMW 545i, Titanium Silver. Bridgestone 760s on Weds Bavaria II 18" wheels, standard sport pack size. Sport, AT. Latest job - NGK Iridium IX plugs installed.
Came home late one night and found that I only had one chromed exhaust tip on my 545i. Don't see any tell-tale scratches on my rear bumper. Don't really suppose anyone would take just one..has anyone else had theirs fall off?

....... j/kNever had a tip fall off. That is weird. What's even more weird is if someone jacked it. Why only one?
