Nice! I heard the m6 mufflers sound really nice on the 535 but not on the 550

Car looks amazing! Someone is trying to sell me m5 mufflers and diffuser for 650$. They came off a 2012 m5 would the year make a difference? I have a 2016 550i. From what i can see the newer model m5s sound the same as the 2012 one or am i wrong? And also is that a good price for the mufflers and diffuser? The mufflers r in very good condition from the pictures hes sent me
Black or chrome tips?

Black tips = Competition package exhaust
Chrome tips = Stock M5 exhaust

Unless they were powder coated or painted.

Go with black tips. It looks even more aggressive.

Car sounds amazing, just perfect for me since I didn't want anything too loud or obnoxious.
The bumper fitment is great, pretty much 100%.
The diffuser was fairly easy to fit as well, I'd give it a 95% fitment as well.
Down the road I'll probably get 90mm tips (anyone have a good source beside cyba?), but for now I enjoy the factory size.
Here are some pictures, and I'll try to attach a sound clip too.









Do you experience a humming sound inside the car around 1k rpms in eco or comfort mode? Its not a drone but more like when you drive a manual car and you are 2 shift lower then what you need to be. Do you experience that?

Keep in mind that I'm also running BMS Stage 1,
so that might make a difference.
How is the throttle response? did you gain any power?
