Has anyone changed the standard dull looking black exhaust tips of the 3.0si to the chrome tips ??? If yes, who has the best deals on the net on these puppies with a BMWCCA discount ?
Thanks,

2007 X5 3.0si - on order for Sept/Octob delivery
On my '07 X5 3.0si the exhaust tips are chrome. The car was built in early June '07. I would prefer the exhaust tips that are the same or similar to the ones on the 4.8. In my opinion, the tips on the 3.0si aren't sporty enough for the look and cost of the car -- almost to the point of being cheap looking.
Can you please include a pic of your X5...esp. the back where we can see your tips....:dunno:
Mine was built 1st week of June...I am picking it up at the PCD in Aug. and was about to order the chrome tips BUT you may have just saved me$150-$300 bucks....
I just went to Crevier BMW in Santa Ana, CA today at lunch and asked one of their part specialist if the 4.8i chrome tip end actually fits the 3.0si, and to my surprise, he said it does fit !!! Needless to say, I put in order for one today and cancelled the 3.0si chrome tips (the car comes standard with it anyway).

I looked at them and the "oval cutouts" are just dummy's looks like you can just take them off....
