Be careful of the slash cut tips and check the orientation of the locating pin on your exhuast before ordering. If it's at 12'o clock you'll be fine, but anything else will force the longest point of the tip to be oriented incorrectly.
I have the black (two sets) but had to get them powder coated. The original finish didn't last very long. They look so much better than stock tips but you will need to paint the black ones eventually.
I've heard the stock tips can be reused on the MPE so theoretically so can the BMS tips. Should be a nice saving too looking at the crazy prices BMW is asking for just the tips
That was my understanding as well, but there's a bunch of threads floating around with those who seem to have got it right. Will try find a few references shortly.
MPE outlet is slightly larger diameter than the stock outlet but there is space in the stock tips to fit, the tabs just compress more. Believe me..if I installed them anybody can do it
Yeah, me too. Probably about another £20 or so for VAT?
My daughter 'needed' a special iphone case once and my wife agreed to buy it - case was about $20 and it ended up costing about £40 when it finally arrived! and it was naff
Sounds odd, but would anyone ever consider putting a gloss black tip on the right hand pipe and a chrome one on the left to make their car not so immediately "M135"? At a glance it might look more like my single piped 118d thus offering an element of surprise or Wolf in sheep's clothing

Is there a difference in appearance from MPE tips and Burger Tips - straight cut Chrome of course.
Reason for asking is that I'm finally getting my M135i LCI tomorrow (5 month wait) and I at the last minute decided for the MPE after I had already received tips from Burger.
