Been gone for a while, does bmw release the V8 tailpipes for the 35i yet?

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??

Is'nt it the same tail pipe for the x5 35i? Looks the same to me.

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.
