Reproduction Exhaust Tips
Reproduction Exhaust Tips
Hey guys,
I have been working on reproducing the long NLA Exhaust tips and have finally been able to make it happen. I have 6 sets, 3 are chromed iirc and the others are unfinished, but can be black powder coated. They are exact replicas of the originals. Made of brass, end rolled, other end flared, stamped crimps. Here is a picture after chroming. These are made to fit the US M5/M6 exhaust. Since brass pipe is not available in the right diameter it had to be enlarged before anything. PM me if interested.

Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
Received my new exhaust tips today.
They look amazing!
I laughed out loud when I opened the box they were shipped in. I immediately knew I wasn't going to be disappointed because whoever packaged them is a perfectionist even worse than I am.
Thank you Rob for a fantastic product. I look forward to installing and enjoying them.

Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
I received my exhaust tips yesterday. I opted for chrome, Rob had to send a raw set to be chrome plated. Fantastic quality and workmanship went into producing these exhaust tips. My Bride now says I have to finish the assembly of my M5.

They look amazing ... well done!
For an M5, what was the original finish (US)? Black powder coating?

Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
Yes the original finish is a black powder coat which is a semi-gloss. It should match the finish of the bumpers.
Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
They all gone ?
Looking for black - 1 pair
Another run building or was this a one shot ?

Sorry for not getting back sooner. Just had a second child. PM me if you are still interested.
Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
Hi,
Any chance you still have a set of the the E28 M5 reproduction exhaust tips? I'd love to have a pair even in the chrome so I could powder coat them? Also, just to make sure they fit, what is the inner diameter at the crimps? The 45mm ones that BMW used to sell I think are too small. Thanks, Steve Wurth

Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
I figure you know what you have for an exhaust but asking to be sure, are you using the M5 exhaust?
These tips are for that size pipes. The pipe size is different from other E28 exhaust pipes.

Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
Are you going to make another batch ? How do these attach ? I didn't the dimples like I have on mine..
Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
These tips are design to exactly replicate the original US M5 and M6 exhausts. They attach the same way as the original, with pressure created from "dimples". At this time I have only 1 set which are chromed left. I do not plan to make another batch due to not having a fabricator who can do the work anymore. I do have the tooling, but the skills of the fabricator are what make them exact copies or very expensive paper weights.
Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
I'm interested in buying the chrome set, if you have it.
Thanks, Roger

Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
I interested
Re: Reproduction Exhaust Tips
^^^ Didn't you just buy the very nice m5 that Dean Laumbach had for sale on BaT? Looked like a very nice example. I did notice it was missing the exhaust tips, however. Hope you can locate a set. Safe travels!
