Wonder if M8 exhaust tips would fit on the M5?
I think the larger M8 tips would fill the bumper real nicely....wonder if it would work?

I tried to help you out, but parts catalog says, not available separately.

Yeah I checked some of the OEM BMW parts sites and it doesn't seem they have many parts available for the M8, yet.....
I want to get to one and see how the tips are held on....whether they have that same centering pin sticking up like the M5 does.

The tabs on the inside of the M5 tips are what makes them fit.....no one is doubting the M8 tips are bigger....however, it matters if the M8 tips are held on the same and whether they have tabs inside to make them fit smaller pipes and how big those tabs are.
Obviously, if the M8 tips are welded to the pipes...it's not even worth it.

I just stopped by a local dealer tonight to peek. The M8 tips are welded on. That explains why they aren't available for buying separately. Damn. That really is a perfect size.

The underlying exhaust is identical to the M5--my friend that handles all of my car mods for me happens to have an F90 Comp exhaust propped up against a wall in his shop as well as the tips you saw in the pics I posted... so given that, I see now why you'd think they might fit. Having now taken a proper look at how they're attached--there's nothing resembling a lock pin. All I see is the visible signs of welding you mentioned earlier. I grabbed the exhaust tip and tried to wiggle it, too--there's no play in there whatsoever... but I suspect that's what you'd already concluded. |
