I bought a set of those at the beginning of March. Delivery time sucks on them. It says March 26-April 6th.

I will post pics once I get them installed.

I've been wondering if you got those on yet. You still haven't received them? Well, keep us posted.

they are not direct replacement tips. They will not fit without modifying the mufflers. If you look the Y is in the middle, our need a straight out with an add on to the inside. These would work w magnaflow setup or something like that. The only bolt/weld on tips are from piecha designs but are 450 euro comes from europe

It is going to take some work to make them fit. A slight bend will be needed to bring them into the center of the diffuser hole.

I will post pictures once they are installed.

I am hoping I receive them this week.

I would recommend you stay away from these if you are looking for a set of dual tips. Shipping was extremely slow and they took over a month to come.
I was at the exhaust shop today for 3 hours getting these installed along with an x-pipe. The shop did an outstanding job and the tips are on the car but it was a pain. They had to cut my mufflers out and add a piece of pipe before them in the back to give them more angle. This allowed them to hook the tips up so they look right. The finished product looks outstanding but I got lucky and found a really good shop that could make them work.
Buy at your own risk.

I will put some pictures up in the next couple weeks. I have a bunch of stuff I am working on at the same time and the car is not photo worthy at this point.

I had already ordered them and figured it was worth a shot. I like them a lot, they were a real pain but worth it.

i bet they look sweet, they are really nice tips, I like the shape and slight angle, Im a sucker for the neisterschaft tips, the only reason is spent the $$ is cause of the tips LOL. anyway I didnt mean the comment that way, my apologies if u took it negatively. I just knew from lots of experience on my w204s they would take muffler work to make it work, but realisticly if its just looks wise spending a couple hundred is much better than 2k+ for highend muffler setups. Post some pics up Id love to see the outcome, and Im glad you found a good shop to do the work, it couda went a whole nother way w a hack shop, glad ur happy w the outcome. what sucks w some posts like this is newbies do a search or read and see a link w tips without reading the whole thread then order stuff and it doesnt work out for them, hopefully this will get read all the way thru..

I hear you, I didn't take it negatively. I appreciated your post earlier in the thread, I took a chance and it worked out. The shop made it happen.

Pics coming soon. My DTM diffuser is getting painted, I dropped it off this morning. I wanted to wait till the tips were installed before I sent it in for paint.

I did email the seller and let him know that the tips are not direct replacement and he should not market them that way.

I paid $250 shipped I believe for them. It sure beat the $2000 price tag for a meisterchaft exhaust. I just wanted the look of the full exhaust on my stock setup with an x-pipe.
