Titanium blue exhaust tips - yes or no?!

Guys I came across these tips on eBay since I'm looking to replace the oval ones with 4 round ones , and thought they would look good on my lemans blue
Opinions?
I have no idea how the oem oval ones are attached...are they one piece with the muffler?is this something doable or am I just wasting my time ?

I'll take your oval tips if you don't want them.

They prob are spot welded on the muffler they are not bolted on as far as I knoe

Hummm Not the exact tips and not on an E53 either, but this will give you the overall look. I like it.

Meh, not a fan. It looks to "tuner" IMO. An m3 may get away with it, but not a 6000lb family wagon...even IF it has 350+ hp. .

I like them, but my opinion about your car means nothing. You should do what you want to your car. In your first post you said you thought they look good and because a few people said they don't care for them, you changed your mind. No matter what you do or buy in life there will always be someone on the other side of things.

Pioneers and trend starters don't follow.....

Can someone please define "ricer" for me?

with your post.

The term ricer is an unflattering term used to describe the stereotype of the mods that are often seen on small vehicles primarily from Japan where rice is a staple of daily diet.
