BMS tips are known to change color over time. Id stay away.

Also- when brought up to customer service, they could care less.

My eBay set are better quality.

I have a set of their chrome ones, the quality is a bit crap. The finish chipped on my original set, BMS replaced them with no hassle. But the replacement ones are starting to discolor even after polishing. These are cheap coated tips, expect the finish to wear over time.

True. This seems to be the consensus

Have they held up over time? Can you recommend a seller?

These are the exact ones I bought. Have not given me a lick of trouble. Perfect in every way. Even have an ///M logo laser etched onto each tip.

What you put on your car is a personal decision. Why should you care what I think?

Do what you want with your car and don't be constrained by what you think others will dislike. It's not YOUR car that way.

Wouldn't do it myself. It's fake...an imitation of what happens to exhaust pipes when overheated.

But respect others desires to mod their car in the way they want.

They are potential cop bait as they just look loud and cops can say you have a modified exhaust even if aftermarket exhaust tips aren't illegal.
