Chrome Tip for 320d exhaust?? - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

chrisbin · 07-04-2005, 07:07 AM

Anyone seen one?

Where can I get?

Standard (UK) finish is silver paint and its already chipped.... :mad:

thebigman · 07-04-2005, 08:27 AM

Totally agree, the standard end is mince.

A euro part number would be ideal…

Exhaust pipe covers in chrome
4 cylinder ( diesel) part no. 82 12 0 398 333 £29.95

I just received my one last week.

chrisbin · 07-05-2005, 04:50 AM

EXCELLENT!

Thanks for that!

Have you fitted it?

Since the pipe is downturned, just wondered how it fits over it....??

weytie · 07-05-2005, 06:37 AM

I have to cut the downturned part of my tail pipe to fit on the chrome exhust pipe

weytie · 07-07-2005, 04:55 PM

It's easy as that, just cut off the part that goes down, and replace it by a custom tip

Really much better then that ugly standard pipe, it even fits in the original hole in the bumper.

Just had to change the rubber mounting , because there was to much space between it

chrisbin · 07-08-2005, 07:48 AM

Thanks guys. Visited a "muffler shop" (exhaust place!) this morning and they will cut off the end and put on nice chrome tip for approx. £50.....Even though its a lease car I think I'm gonna do it!!

mkinley · 07-13-2005, 07:33 PM

Chrisbin - I would be interested in any pix of the exhaust if you had it done ?

Contemplating the same for my 320d..

Not yet.....on returning to Longlife and asking for an oval pipe something like Weytie's the price doubled....

So I am still negotiating with them...

Rest assured I will let you know when and if I have a cost effective solution.

philip888 · 07-16-2005, 12:38 PM

The orginal oval pipe from BMW is £29.99

Will M · 04-16-2006, 05:21 AM

Just found this old post.

Could some of you update on you tail-pipes. How you getting on with them? Is anyone experiencing problems with soot ? I have e91 320d and its something I need to change.

bora · 04-16-2006, 01:20 PM

I have also this bad exhaust pipe and I want to change it.
I would like to put the 6 cyl exhaust pipe but I think we must change all exhaust.
for philip888, is the cuted off exhaust pipe the same diameter that the exhaust whith particle filter ? is there no problem to fix the chrome exhaust pipe to it?

Chris33 · 07-31-2006, 03:58 PM

I like a lot of 320d owners feel the rear exhaust lets the car down, but now at long last there is an answer!
BMW UK have just released a "Sports rear silencer" for the 320d.
It is only available for the 4 cylinder diesel models and the part number is: 18 10 0 398 920. The only down side is the cost, £657.00!!! + fitting.

bora · 08-02-2006, 04:55 PM

that interest me a lot. do you have any picture of it?

MeTaL · 08-02-2006, 05:00 PM

What's the downside of switching to these straight exhaust tips ? I mean...the exhaust tip of the 320d is aimed down for a reason, isn't it ?

bora · 08-03-2006, 04:02 AM

whell, the exhaust is downturned when you don't have particle filter....

MeTaL · 08-03-2006, 04:16 AM

Is that something you can get aftermarket ?
