How can I get quads and still keep a stock look?

I'm currently looking for a "quad exhaust" look for my E92. I have a stock E92 bumper. I want to keep the bumper looking stock, but I don't want to do any cutting to the bumper itself. What do you reccomend?

Have a look at my black E92. It's half way down the page.

Sounds like quite a challenge...unless you're looking to do a stacked Quad Exhaust tip system like the Lexus IS-F

I think you may have to cut the bumper a bit. . .Any quad exhaust that will fit into the stock dual exhuast area wont be worth having. . .

Simple... you can't!

You will need to cut your bumpers definitely. I had my stock bumper cut and am unhappy with it still til this day. I mean, the cut was a decent cut... but it just doesn't look right. I think I would have rather gotten the M-tech rear bumper and had the rear diffuser cut. I've seen quite a few of those and those have turned out better.

I thought I saw a diffuser that would go over the stock bumper. Or do you have to upgrade to M-tech rear?

How about 2x3 exhaust -- three tips per side ! Then 6 straight pipes all the way to the exhaust, with cross-overs as needed to balance exhaust pressure and merge to the turbos' exhaust side...

Actually, 12 tips would make the car look like a 12 cylinder monster! Maybe a new rear bumper with twele tips evenly spaced. Heck, leave the dual exhaust, but branch six ways per side.

Add flashing lights inside the wheel wells of course....

I bet you mean the Hamann rear diffuser. Do a as it is available on this forum. It's a rep piece or you can buy original, but expect to pay $700+ for bragging rights.

Wow that looks awesome. Definitely the look I'm going for. It looks like it can be painted. It also looks like a whole replacement bumper.

Any vendors carrying this, please PM me.

When I do my quads I plan on cutting the stock bumper and then installing the Hamann replica carbon fiber diffuser from Cyba or Adamaster to make it look clean. A few guys on the forums have done this and it looks great. Keep in mind this is one of the cheapest options for quads as the cf diffuser only costs around $250

I'm doing the exact same thing. I think Cyba is offering a Diffuser + tip combo. I will be all over this. Minus the carbon fiber of course.

Just make sure your tips will fit the Hamann diffuser or the replica diffuser.

No one makes one that fits the RDSport. It has to be custom, and the only group that will do it is Duke Dynamics.

That'll work, but I thought Cyba's diffuser is for the M-tech bumper.

only cheap route is to get it cut, get a hamann diffuser, search adamaster...and buy the tips..

If you have a black car a cf diffusor goes for 250 plus tips plus labor should cost u 450 500 bucks bro...

You just cut your bumper, there's no diffuser. I'm definitely not doing that.
