Exhaust tip

[aramis]

I notice that I need to saw off a bit from my current exhaust tips to get the new tips installed, does anyone know if I need to saw off until the exhaust valve or just before it?

they saw mine almost till the end (coz our pipe is very short). it took them almost 30-40 minute to installed it coz its difficult to adjust the tip until it fit perfectly out from the bumper, they will need a connector pipe that is curve to connect your new tip to the muffler.

curve? why curve?

because if the connector pipe is straight, u have to cut a hole on your bumper for the new tail pipe to come out (its too high). hence they have to use a curve connector to redirect from top to bottom so that the new tail pipe can fcome out nicely with the bumper.

ACS tips = everybody has one, to me that's a big no no.

Original = way overpriced, plus, it looks like the replica version

Replica version = looks like the original

I had my AC tip fixed for my previous e46 in sunway.
After sawing to the max, still jutting out slightly more than expected..
might want to check with calvin tan the best place for fitting

Original AC Schnitzer rear section muffler - RM3600 (year 2002). Prices would have gone UP by now seeing the strength of the Euro. So expect about RM4k easily. But you get what you pay for. The sound. Oh, the glorious sound! The only way to describe it - its to die for.....!
