Quads are on!
Megan Racing Quads installed this morning......
Had to use an OEM 550i diffuser for the time being until my duke dynamics arrives. Before anyone says it, I know the tips look a bit too far out! lol. I had them leave a little extra because of the incoming diffuser. May still bring them in if I don't like it after that. Should have a spoiler on it this week as well to balance the look out.

They were actually the rolled titanium (blue) tips from Megan. I just took them to my local powder coating shop and had them do a high temp satin black coating on them. Its good for up to 800 degrees which they assured me was more than enough for my use.

Thanks guys!
Spoiler is on and pics are updated after getting a detail this weekend. M5 diffuser is supposed to arrive tomorrow....so after paint and some slight exhaust modification it will hopefully be in in the new few.

hahaha....dont worry, there is a reason those are at the bottom of my future mods list. Haven't even bought yet let alone gotten them into the paint shop for tinting like someone else I know! So you'll definitely still beat me to it.
