MPE without tailpipes

Hi guys,

Do somebody have a M235i with MPE but without any tailpipes ? I yes, can you post some pics please ? I just bought a used MPE without the clamp and without the tailpipes. For the clamp, I found a clamp raggazone 83mm I will test with it. And for the tailpipes, I hesitate to let it as it is, IMO it will have a good look.

Thanks

Are you asking without any tips or are you asking about reusing the ones that came on the stock exhaust? I would think the pipes would be too short without the tips.

I'm asking without any tips. I saw on older threads that it is possible to reuse the black tips which come with the stock exhaust. This is what I will do if pipes are too short.

PS : sorry for the words used, I don't know if there is a difference between exhaust tips and tailpipes (I live in Switzerland)

No worries, just wanted to be sure I understood. I have the MPE with chrome tips. I can pop one of the tips off when I get home to show you a comparison. I think it'll be a few inches short.

Generally:
Tailpipes = actual piping that comes out of the muffler
Exhaust tips = Decorative covers for tailpipes

Tailpipes don't need exhaust tips. However, exhaust tips need tailpipes.

I guess it technically works but it looks a little weird.

pz619 Thank you very much ! It looks less refined, more or less like the M235i racing
