I know my Supersprint exhaust tips are further out than the OEM tips. I will try and shoot some pics tomorrow. It seemed odd at first but I got used to it and now do not even notice it.

I had actually wished my stock tips came out further so I don't think it really matters Wuzin... probably not worth the effort of removing and rewelding.

I think you're better off leaving it that way. If you pull it back in, anything coming out of the exhaust can end up staining your lower skirt...just a thought.

Wuzin they do stick out a bit - but nobody else except us hardcore X5'ers will notice. At the same time, if it bugs you, have them fixed up so you like it. It won't cost that much.

They do look too out and kind of strange. C, If you want I can give the stock measurements.

you need to fix that. Precision is the the key to perfect looks and those tips are at least 1.5" too far out maybe 2"
