If your exhaust is messed up, and you're thinking of adding something custom at some point down the road, now is the time to do it!!! You can probably get a great exhaust system from a key aftermarket manufacturer for about the same cost or less than the pricey stock system. Do some research, and talk numbers to the body shop!

I got rear ended and ended up with a sweet Remus system since my stock set up was bent and replacement money was included in the repairs.

Not even that, they'll be dishing out about the same amount either way!

check out super sprint here Turner Motorsport | BMW*E53*Supersprint Exhaust Systems

I got my remus From bavarian motor works (bavauto.com) for around $800 delivered, I added an x-pipe for like $140 at a custom shop (after the fact) and I'm very happy with the system.
