Default exhaust options on a e61

So i installed the ar dp on my car and been looking at exhaust set ups for our cars and it is very limited as far as bolt on options go. What is everyone running on their e61 x drive? I am thinking of doing a muffler delete with a few resonator welded on?

Not many manufacturers I have found make an exhaust for the wagon specifically. However REALOEM shows the Part# for Exhaust on the wagon to be the same as the Part# for the Sedan. I am thinking/assuming that means we can run the sedan Catback on the wagon with no issues?. J

AR DPs, Custom single 3" system with a Vibrant Ultra Quiet resonator. I haven't heard anything better. Not cheap but worth it if performance and sound are priorities.

Many more exhaust videos (different configurations) on my channel:

I've got the Dinan Axleback on my E61, aggressive tone but very nice on the highway with very little intrusive noise.
