Exhaust
#26
............I sent replies to the few forum members who have sent me pm"s about it. The W203 pic is that of westmeister (spelling?) "quad" exhaust. As you can see it is not really a quad exhaust. It is relatively inexpensive and available at Bekkers.com LINK
...........Unfortunately for the W210, no such product exists and as others have stated, it needs to be custom made which makes it a bit more expensive. For me the major cost was in modifying the bumber to look factory made and modifying the trunk to delete the spare tire well.

I don't know why this issue has such a big run around???

Now my only question is where the hell did this guy get the rear bumper with the "factory look" quad cutouts? What I mean is the bumper came that way and it wasn't cut by a body shop. I think it looks great

look closer and you'll see 2 mufflers on his car when they only came with one......
nothing to be baffled about

i know what you mean ted.........a exhuast shop can't do the molding but only cut the bumper but i've seen some exhaust shops do a very good job on cuting it to make it look like it was factory made.......molding a cut out that little isn't very hard if they know what there doing.....
i think it was more that i didn't know what mike was saying.....

I wish I would have known you can have it molded.
I had mine cut. It still looks good though
So about the wheel well. What does that cost??
I think I would like to do the same set up. What kind of mufflers were used Ted?? I'm thinking of selling my AMG one now.

i've seen the thread but theres only one pic from under and you can't see both muffler's......i have a cutsom one, forgot the name....did it so long ago...i did you use a 210e55 exhuast on both sides or another model......if i can fit a w211e55 muffler then i will be doing that.......
..............Here is the pic. It has both mufflers identified as muffler A and muffler B. You may wish to look at the pic again. You can clearly see both exhausts. I chose not to use the AMG exhausts, but I have AMG tips. The picture answers all the questions you have. Good luck with your project.

...............what I've been trying to communicate to Mr. AlexBenz is that the quad exhaust as I did it was a completely customm job. There is no template for reproduction. The actual exhaust is completely unimportant. All the pipes were custom bend and fabricated to fit. I used magnaflow mufflers, but that means nothing. You can pick any muffler you prefer. The bumper was custom made. No, muffler shops don't do it. I went to a body shop and drew what I wanted and charged them to make it happen.....period! There is no cook book or recipe.

Hi Ted, nice upgrade on your E55,not just exhaust but, lights, trunk spoiler, looks really great, congrats on your car, i was thinking for a while to do exhaust and for me it wasin't worth, I have E430 with some upgrades and planing to keep car for few more years and upgrade to something that will have quat exhaust from factroy, anyways i had for i while fake quat exhaust and it looked nice, now ordered remus catback exhaust and that would do it ... yeah anyways, nice job Ted !
