Do the exhaust tips come on and off conveniently or is professional help required? Is black actually easier to maintain than chrome, since I assume it to be? Does anyone have any photos of black tips on Sophisto Grey?
Part number is "18 30 8 511 729"
You need to order 2 of them

List price is about 45 Euro each
I see some online US dealers have them for about $62 each ( search for "18308511729" )


I have not looked at how the F10 tips are secured.
They should be by bolt or by clips.
Bolt is easy as you just loosen and remove.

The clips are more difficult as they dont want to allow you to remove the tips.
You either have to push the clips away from the inside pipe somehow or break them or slowly twist off the tips.
Not always easy
