Custom exhaust on my X5 3.0
 

Below is the custom exhaust I had installed on my X5:

2004 BMW X5 Exhaust

Looks awesome sounds mean as well. Gotta say it but that is my one of my favorite colors too

WOW, how much was the total job?

sounds mean. very nicely done.

Thanks Sethro. It was our third choice for color, blue and charcoal being first and second, but when you're waiting for a manual transmission, you don't have a lot of options. It took us two months to find a manual that fit our requirements/price range, and we jumped at it.

Total bill was $715. It sounds VERY similar to our 328i, which had no resonator and a pretty straight through stainless dual tip muffler. We loved that sound. That and this our her daily drivers, and she doesn't want obnoxious sound, but I like a little deeper tone. This turned out perfect for me.

Sounds Great!

Did you delete the resonator?? I did that on my 3.0 with a Supersprint set up.....sounds mean! :D

Rich:thumbup:

Nope, I left the resonator in.

Niiice! I like the tips a lot! They're not too small and not too big (the tips). You can just pop in the plastic exhaust trim to get a cleaner look but still looks good w/o them.

I like that the tips have thickness to them and not some thin gauge looking pipe. :thumbup:

What kind of tips are those ? ? ?

I'll have to ask the muffler shop who manufactures them and get back to you.
