Hey guys. I've been getting PM's about the exhaust since the photos and some information is no longer linked to from this thread. I'll gather the photos and info and re-post them to this thread once I have them. Stand by.

I get a fair amount of mail from you guys asking for parts and install information because the photo links were broken from earlier in this thread. Here is what I was able to get a hold of. Hope this helps.

Here are the parts you will want to obtain:

Item # Item Name Quantity Price/ea. Extended
10425 Magnaflow Muffler 10425 Satin Stainless 2 $66.80 $133.60
11385 Magnaflow Muffler 11385 Satin Stainless 1 $95.74 $95.74
N/A Sebring Tuning Staggered Exhaust Tips 2 $75.00 $150.00
18307521388 BMW Exhaust Hanger Bracket 1 $25.61 $25.61
18207833206 BMW Exhaust Hanger 1 $23.69 $23.69
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total without tax or installation: $428.64


Mufflers will look like this:

These photos aren't the best, but you'll want to hack the existing exhaust off just after the first set of resonators then weld on some extensions:

Install the 11385:

Here is another view after the 11385 has been installed. Notice the position of the existing hanger:

The additional hanger you ordered will be placed here (red circle):

Routing for the 10425's will look like this when you're done:

Left and Right pipes to the tips will be routed similar to this:
