I paid £75 delivered for the pair

Cheers, just ordered mine from Phil as well. How easy are these to fit?

Ian.

Easy - they just slide on and off. For mine a rubber mallet on the rear side and knock gently off. The replacements then push on and I tapped into place with the mallet. All of 5mins.

Not too bad, I left the car on for 5 mins and let the exhaust warm up. Then use a rubber mallet and a wooden block to knock the tips outwards. Each one took a few hits to loosen up.

Once you see movement, they are easy enough to pull off.

Never thought of that. Took me ages to pull them off by my hand lol!
Going to swap my 440i tips over at the weekend to the black ones

Abzynthe · 12-29-2017, 04:56 PM

They look great on the 440

I used the hammer method to get the chrome ones off, much easier than pulling for ages lol

KCH1984 · 12-29-2017, 05:10 PM

Looks great on the 440 I agree - much better than the chrome.

gr4z · 12-30-2017, 04:13 AM

All looking good chaps. Must get round to selling mine as have the MPPSK now!

IanW555 · 12-30-2017, 04:49 PM

Mine arrived today, hoping to fit tomorrow after cleaning the car.

paimon.soror · 12-30-2017, 05:17 PM

anymore pics of them on a black car? i am not sure yet of going with black ones or the chrome bms ones to hold me over until a new exhaust

Derrymilk · 12-31-2017, 05:58 AM

Mine

IanW555 · 01-01-2018, 01:59 AM

Cleaned the car yesterday (that is snow foam, not snow on the floor!

)

Fitted the new tips, like them, but a little hard to see on MG. Thanks for the fitting advice, using block of wood and rubber mallet, really easy to remove chrome tips and fully locate new ones.

Next job, de-badge the boot.

sahajesh · 01-01-2018, 02:58 AM

The problem with MG is perhaps the tips blend in and maybe having chrome as a contrast is better?

Who knows and I'm still gonna get a set anyway

Black tips looks miles better than silver chrome ones

Great looking wagon and good clean too

Ian83w · 01-07-2018, 02:27 PM

Hi guys does anyone know the size of the exhaust pipes when the chrome tips are removed on a 440 or 340i thanks Ian

Hello guys,

I just received the Black tips for my F36 430d N57 Engine with two exhaust pipes only on the left side of the car and, for my surprise, they don't fit. The Chrome ones (from the car) are 65mm in diameter and the Black ones are 70mm. :-S Anyone else in my situation? They were ordered under the car VIN Number as original part:

https://www.realoem.com/bmw/en/showp...09#18307610636

Thanks!

Simon89 · 01-20-2019, 03:41 PM

I was going to ask something similar.

Will the black chrome tips fit both LCI and pre-LCI 330D rear silencers?
