Will BASTUCK QUAD Exhaust work with OEM BUMPER?
Are the bastuck quad inner tips positioned faily similar to the oem dual tips? so I would only need to trim to fit the outter exhaust tips on each side?
Will the Bastuck Quad exhaust work with OEM bumper (WITHOUT BASTUCK VALENCE) trimmed to fit quads as simple as that like other quads? or does it require additional work such as cutting the exhaust tips, reposition, then re-weld?

It will fit fine, cutting is major so make sure it's a clean job as it will be exposed. No repositioning tips.. atleast with mine and I was using the OEM bumper. |

If the cuts are done proper it can be pulled off. See, a lot of guys want the nice look and go without getting the rear valence, which can be done, but then it requires a good body shop to make the cuts for you. Most shops around here either work on the body and leave exhaust/performance to other shops. So, it was an extra fee but it would of looked great. I think bastuck made a great diffuser so I ended up getting it.. and have been really happy. If you go the route with no rear diffuser then.. make a body shop measure and make cuts... and make sure the cuts are rounded/sanded..... and touched up (if need be) ... It will look amazing and give your car that aggressive look its been missing. |

Looking good Game
For the best install of the Bastuck Quad 335i system we recommend the Bastuck rear diffuser or the Duke dynamics M-tech Quad insert diffuser. The DD diffuser was special made for the Bastuck quad. Bastuck diffuser Duke Dynamics M-tech diffuser |

bastuck quads sit much wider than the stock setup. if you not using a diffuser you need to mod the exhaust otherwise it will look messed up. |

i just bought the M AERO REAR BUMPER...
my bastuck should be here in 2-3 weeks... according to gameovr he says I will be over to fit the bastuck quad without any modification on the exhaust, and all i need to do is dremel a bigger hole on my M aero bumper to fit the extra tips on each side... correct??

It won't look good because of the sharp edges and big opening. It's better off to get a new quad diffuser instead. |
