Even if they did, I don't think they would fit on the LCI

Why get stock tips? Akrapovic makes the sickest tips for the 3.5 in carbon fiber. Direct bolt on replacement. I've seen the installation guide and it looks like a faily easy job...probably <1 worth of work.

No, they do not make for X5 OR for X6 5.0

I have a 5.0 X6 and cannot understand why they. Would only make the tips for the X6 3.5??

Apparently it's not. I've contacted Akrapovic directly and they told me that these tail pipes would NOT fit the 5.0

That curvature wouldn't seem to fit the E70 so well.
