Straight piping Question

Hello,

I'm planning to straight pipe my E63, cat and res delete with straight pipes.

Question is, premium EU brands straight pipes in my country are inflated as hell. Cat delete alone would cost over $1500 with a EU made pipe.

I found plenty of local independent exhaust shops that can do the job for around 200-300 dollars.

Question is, which material do you recommend me to use? I live in the United Arab Emirates and the weather in the summer hits around 52 Celsius.

Thanks in advance.

I had a full 3" Stainless Mandrel bent, cut and weld system done incorporating V band clamps to merge with turbo back downpipes and resonators in place of mufflers and it was about 1200 Cnd including labour, but not tips. I bought AMG tips off ebay and had them powder coated satin black. Cost another 300 or so for those.

Stainless Steel for sure. I had mine done for $180 USD. Took them 45 minutes to complete the job, and it looks 100% factory.
