It looks ok on the C55...

But my mom's new TL Type-S quads look better, I think due to the amount of space between the two duals.

(doesn't sound as good though

)

Just my .02 ... I always found the C55 (and W203 AMG's) looking quite awkward with the quad exhaust...I agree with MBenzNL...the car doesn't look wide enough to sport the quad-exhaust...some nice duals or even a single (like the oval tip style) makes the car have that really clean look...but then again that's my opinion...and no offense to any W203 AMG owners for my comment above.

I'd prefer quad, whether the C-Class is a thin car or not i.e. 68 inch.

Brabus also make six exhaust pipes, i believe it's on the SL-Class.

What kind of work would have to be done for a quad exhaust to function well on a stock W203? Just a new bumper and exhaust? What exhaust manufacturers offer quad?

well, we can do the C55 set up. There was a discussion with the list of parts to do this set-up. I'm going to talk to the muffler shop if they can do something custom.

quad makes no sense for an inline 4 though

very few cars actually have a true dual system most are a 2:1:2

So....that means you purchased?

Mine has that brown paint on it...the chrome all peeled off, not on the tips.

I won't rust. It's stainless.

AC Schnitzer Type IV 2-Piece

They're pretty expensive, but a lot of people have them b/c they're "BMW Approved" and won't "void" your warranty according to many dealerships
