Exhaust tips 330 vs 340

Bmwphile · 12-06-2021, 05:26 AM

I like most of the styling tweaks of the 340 over the 330, particularly the front grille. However, I just don't like the 340 exhaust tips. To these eyes, they look awkward with the circular pipe within a trapezoidal surround. I much prefer the simpler round outlet of the 330. It looks cleaner & frankly more honest. Do others agree or disagree? Do others have any opinions on the styling differences between the 2 models?

I definitely agree with you!

Agreed

I don't like these trapezoidal exhaust tips at all. I will be getting round quad tips in a few months when my AWE exhaust arrives

oh cool thanks for taking one for the team - while I don't mind my gloss black oem m340 tips I am curious to see how these work out for you - maybe I will change my mind

jpowers36 · 12-06-2021, 05:22 PM

Yeah I'll post some pictures up when I get them. Hopefully they fit.

If these look good and don't stick out all crazy like the Dinan tips I'll be purchasing too. Looking forward to your pics

I'm still following this. Looking forward to seeing the pics of the install!

bmwloverm2 · 12-06-2021, 07:00 PM

Looking forward to see these two installed.

It's quite important for me that the more exterior tip doesnt' touch the OEM diffusor (I don't plan to change it) so they should work well with it.

Thanks for (future) posting your pics!

Subbed. Thanks for taking one for the team. If they look great I would love to go this route.

When you do....please start a new thread so your results don't get lost in this thread

BobTheBimmer · 12-23-2021, 11:04 AM

Update?

MilesHi · 12-23-2021, 11:52 AM

I´m also interested.
The only thing I prefer of the 430 over the M440i I´m waiting for are the exhaust tips.
Would this company ship to Europe?
