Looks to be abou the same responses. Looks like we may have narrowed it down to #2 and #5. Please keep the suggestions coming. I really appreciate all of the replies and opinions. Looking forward to hearing more.

They are ruled out anyway (so doesn't really matter), but 1 and 3 look very similar -- is it just a length difference?

2 got my attention most.
1. angle cut
2. slanted (stagger pipes)
3. Double wall
That's number 5 with one pipe shorter than the other (slanted). The rear m5 bumper is angle and not straight across.
Of course, it would be pre fab because I've searched the world over and have not found this commodity.

If and when I redo my exhaust (as soon as I can find free time), I would go with:
1. angle cut
2. slanted (stagger pipes)
3. Double wall

My tips are SICK!!!! Triple AAA just installed last week and I'm hopeful to have photos tomorrow detailing their work.
3.5's-Double Walled-Staggered-Galvanized Black.
They fit my new CF Quad Diffuser like nobody's business. With all my new mods, people are literally stopping me in parking lots, valets, my gym etc. My car is a beast now. Pics coming soon.

Was it pre fab (custom) and did it break the wallet?

I can't wait . . . let me see from different angles . . . sides, rear, top. Was it pre fab (custom) and did it break the wallet?
Was it pre fab (custom) and did it break the wallet?Pre-Fab but worth it. It really gives my new diffuser the "finishing touch".
Pics coming.
