Yes they will and if there is issues, a good exhaust shop should be able to fab up mounts to make it work.

Thanks for the reply. I am assuming the mufflers fit with slight modifications but not the entire system right as the M6 is different? Here are the pictures of what I am getting. Should I just cut off the mufflers at the bend? I could find a way to get the full system home but would rather not if it doesn't make a difference.

Should I try to take the xpipe?

The mufflers look about right. I think they will fit right into place. Its just a matter if you want the full exhaust. Like what kind of sound are you going for? I personally just installed the M5 mufflers mainly because I was getting a proper diffuser and the sound was a win.

I was thinking of just getting tips and welding them on the stock 535i mufflers but for $100 I was able to get the whole mufflers.

I want the V8 to wake up. But nothing that drones or
Is extremely loud. I will be hooking up exhaust valves. I just don't want to cut the exhaust and realize I could of used the entire system. I know mufflers fit. I also know the M5 full system fits the 550 with modification to connect to the down pipes. Keeping the stock m diffuser as well.
