It's kind of funny - I've always loved the black exhaust tips you get with the Competition Packages however you almost don't even see them on this truck. I'm definitely not switching to chrome but I'd be very interested to see who comes up with the first few mods to make them stand out way more. Unless you're standing right behind it, it honestly doesn't look much different than a regular X3.

Yes I agree but I'm actually getting the chromes. Had them on all my M cars. The exhaust tips help achieve the aggressive four pipe look that exotics have. Ever wonder why the super cars have massive chrome exhausts? You'll never see them in black. It completes the look.

Chrome? Maybe in the 80s. Titanium perhaps, but not chrome and most aren’t using tips or even quad piped.

I mean stainless steel. Blacks are not visible compared with the silver look. I even like the emblems visible in chrome not black.

The 4 pipes are M iconic. Making them in black just refutes it. This is my personal preference. I know lots of guys here love black stealth tips And debadge.

It’s your car - it should look how you want it to Just making the point is that doesn’t make it more “super car” like. I wouldn’t mind the old E46 style metal tips with the etched M emblem. Much simpler and utilitarian than the slip on tips.
