So are the LCI exhaust tips different than the pre-LCI?

I remember reading in BMW literature about the LCI where they talked about not putting as much of a rolled edge on the LCI exhaust tips to give them a bigger appearance.

Can anyone who has seen the LCI in person discuss this......is the change noticeable or no?

To the naked eye, it doesn't look any bigger than the pre LCI.

looks exactly like my comp tips...may just be unnoticeable. they slide off really easy. may just need to put 2 side by side to be sure...or maybe get a part number and see if they're even different.

From this blog...

"Nonetheless, the rear bumper has also been slightly revised in the area of the rear diffuser, while now the four exhaust pipes features thinner walls and a high-gloss black coating."

ya i guess i can slightly tell that they look "thinner"...but i mean lets be real here. They can't be more than a cm difference in size, lol...although first photos that ive really noticed the rear bumper difference and i am not a fan of the LCI rear end. Jury is still out on the tailights for me but ya not a fan of the bumper itself or the diffuser. Looks muted.
