AMG exhaust on 550

Will the exhaust from a GL63 drop in on a GL550?

Go Kleeman - for ECU upgrade + exhaust upgrade.

The ECU upgrade is awesome - and the exhaust gives you a deeper "note" you deserve !

Basically was thinking of buying an exhaust from a GL63 owner who would have upgraded. Assuming they didn't cut out up I think it's the resonators to tips. Wanted to know it it's a direct swap.

That's why I asked "which part" ... you said muffler.... your money better spent on ECU/performance... "look-like-a-AMG" ..... so you know you can order AMG rear emblems from your dealer...good luck to you..

I was looking to add a little rumble not necessarily add performance or tuning. Its the family hauler. The tips on my 13 550 is integrated into bumper, any exhaust change would not be noticeable on the exterior.

I can't remember where i saw this done, but it is possible to just replace the tips from a GL63. However it's a painful process that requires you to also replace the rear valance or plastic chrome piece that runs across the bumper. Keep in mind the GL63 rear valance is not chrome but rather a matte finish. I've included a link to a oem kit off ebay.

My research shows it is not, but I could be wrong.

If you look at the Supersprint website, there is not "rear section" only for GL550. You have to get the cat-back. For the GL63 you can get rear section only.

I would say get the catback from Supersprint.

What exhaust - Kleemann only has the ECU tune for the X166 that I am aware of.

I don't think that anyone actually answered the OP question... Will the mufflers from a GL63 work with a GL550. Nevermind all the other parts that show out the back of the bumper. Just, will the 63 mufflers exchange out for the 550 mufflers? I have the Eurocharged to and it is awesome. Exhaust upgrade would be nice.
