Help with single tip exhaust tips... (did search)
Hello all...
I am trying to find the best set of single tips I can put on my 2007 E350 that will not require me to cut the bumper in any way...
I did a search but turned up so much contradictory info that I felt a new post would better help me.
So, what is the best set of tips and where is the best place to get them?
Thanks...

So, if I understand correctly you have a W211 without sport package that you now want visible exhaust tips on? ![Confused](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif)
I'll have to check because I know a friend of mine did something similar, but honestly your best bet is to get a spec bumper and then obtain the regular tips from there - *likely* higher availability and thus lower cost. Sorry =\

Could you point me to where I can get the spec bumper or is it a stealer part only?
Thanks!

Yeah it will make the car look a bit weird if you DON'T modify the exhaust as it is a generally low car. As far as the spec bumpers... hmm never gone down that route. I find most parts on AutoPartsWarehouse to be somewhat reputable but I have a limited history with them so beware, also places like eBay are s**t for Mercedes parts. I would recommend just getting a stealer part, their parts values are very very reasonable where I am actually, it is just labor that costs quite a bit so if you find a good body shop take the dealer part there.
