I wish they were oval-ey like the m5 aftermarket exhausts.. I can't spell it so I dont want to type it and look like a douche... haha.
Your exhaust looks great! The tips look similar to the RD's Quads.
Did you choose to have the left muffler placed vertical for symmetrical reasons?

Knightcom,
Yes, I chose both of them to look like that so they can match. Besides, since one is down, makes no difference if the other side is down too, so might as well right.
Paul Petrone charged me 1400 for just paint and install of bumper. For my hood, trunk, trunk finisher, front left fender and M5 bumper.
Also, he put in broken PDC sensors, cause he didnt want to fill in the holes that were empty. (I dont have PDC). He didnt charge me for that. I got a few quotes from a few shops, but this price is about average.
Also, another thing is, a few shops wanted to charge me like 25-2600...
I was like wtf?!
Paul Petrone works with BMW's and other luxury car's all the time so I got what I paid for, quality work and quality service.
Its raining out here so Can't really take sound clips. Probably sunday. I'll post it on youtube or something.

wouldn't the muffler scrape the ground in some situation with it hanging down?
So yea. and if it does start to scracthing.. back to the muffler shop and re adjust the mufflers. heh.
I do feel the tips stick out a bit.. I have to take pictures later for all of ya'll and a video.

Nice! I was gonna take my car to Paul Petrone a while back to replace my front fender it was gonna cost ~800 but thats not what got me its that I would have to leave the car there a week!? I instead got it done in Life Quality BMW, they ordered the part for me (deposit of course) and painted and installed in the next day and I only had to leave the car with them for a few hours. Good Work but not a good neigborhood heh Canarsie =P
