bmwZ said:Yes, the exhaust sound after ESS flash got really differentI have allready measured the original X6 tips, they are too big for an nice fit in our bumper. Maby the Akra tips is smaller, but I doubt it.
bmwZ these are the ones for the X6 I'm going to get in contact with them here in the UK and see if they have any in a smaller diameter and without the sleeves.

Thanks
Yes, here in Norway they tax cars after engine size, so this time I took the costs of buying the bigger engine
. A new 35i was in 2009 costing £40 000 more than a 23i with same equipment 
So I had to give £25 000 more for my used 35i than a used 23i. The maintenance is approx the same here in Norway.

Nice ones, but you should look for some one that fits X5.

bmwZ, what did you do with the crazy gorgeous z4, did you sell?
Thanks again
And then the 35is exhaust is mounted. It sound louder in general, but not too loud. So very happy so far Thinking of deleting rear cats for a little raspier soundtrack and approx 10whp. Milltek have straight pipes for doing this 
Also my new M-bumper have arrived and allready picked up by the paintshop

Finally some updates on my E89
I have spent some time mounting some nice new parts. M-front bumper with 35is silver wings, M steeringwheel, H&R lowering springs, BMW X5 35i exhaust tips and change of leather in the seat.
Difference of a non-M and M-steeringwheel:
And then some pics of changing the leather in the seat. I wanted to change it because of the discolored leather cushion

A different approach to your E85, a lot more subtle, less race-like - but I like it lots...
