Question Has anyone put these simple chrome exhaust tips on their 3.0?
I am looking to add some chrome tips to my 3.0 exhaust. I was going to get the OEM chrome tips but found these for about $30 cheaper. They seem to be and look good. Has anyone purchased these or have any thoughts about them? I just want something simple and inexpensive.

Thanks,

Remember you get what you pay for, I think most of the guys on the board (if they run tips at all) have OEM tips.

Check with some of the discount dealers for parts to save money on the OEM ones...

BMW makes OEM chrome tips...they sell them as an accessory. I thought the question was why not buy the cheaper chrome tips then the OEM ones.
