Are these bad?

Savageenterprise · 09-14-2018, 12:54 PM

Kind of like the look of these on some cars I've seen.

Thoughts?

Savageenterprise · 09-14-2018, 01:13 PM

Yeah, idk. Like I said I like the look but not sure how they'd look fitted. Anyone have some real pics with these on?

jeffthx · 09-14-2018, 01:15 PM

On the flip side, if you like them, get them. You're the judge of what works for you. There's nobody going around with a clipboard handing out ratings that have to be posted in your front window.

Scroll down on this site for picture/video.

It seems edgy. If this is the only highlight on your car, then it will look good.

Yeah they show them fitted on a 4 series so I guess its similar.

I ordered a set of the burnt titanium ones and they faded within a month. BMS told me that it is a known issue and is caused by how hot the exhaust gets. They replaced them with the black ones, and they've held up well. I actually think they look nice.

I wonder where we can find a nice quality set of tips that will last. This seems to be a common problem with the fading and whatnot

MONSTAR · 09-14-2018, 01:44 PM

I like mine. I've had them on since April (5 months) and no fading here. Catless DP and no muffler.

Zara · 09-14-2018, 02:00 PM

IMO yes, by the way do not get the BMS Black Chrome Tips.. Biggest waste of money, I ordered those tips and the black faded and turned into a nasty dark yellow (looks like shit pretty much) after less than a month of use.

Nice man, thanks for the post! They look great. Not as "showy" as they look like on the site. Nice to see on a black car too as my vehicle is Black.

Damn that shitty. I would contact them and ask for a refund. We all need to find good quality tips!!!

Although I wish this existed

oksymoroni · 09-14-2018, 02:11 PM

I wouldn't....but if you like them, its your car man!! Go for it

Pray for Mojo · 09-14-2018, 02:13 PM

I think they would be nicer if the bluing was only half the width it is.

Some people definitely need the gut check lol.

TF3090 · 09-14-2018, 03:50 PM

Lol I like how BMS is selling these tips for $39.99 now that people in the community are starting to realize the issues with them. Almost bought them at $90 a few months ago.

To me, those look rice.

mallorca328 · 09-14-2018, 05:17 PM

as bad as having the M color grills

KOWTOWN · 09-14-2018, 05:31 PM

who cares, do whatever you like

Gen13 F36 · 09-14-2018, 05:45 PM

Personal never like them....even back in the days with my Silvia S14 kouki. Just don't like the look.

But on the other hand it is your car, you have to make a decision.
