I need a replacement rear section of my exhaust. It is the backbox which needs replacing. Does anyone have a used backbox in good condition (OEM or not-overly fruity non-standard) to sell?
Let me know thanks
 
Hi mate,

I've got one I picked up from jamie_z4.
Here's a link to his original ad: https://z4-forum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=113850&p=1640521#p1640521

Not fitted it myself, but willing to let go for £30 collection from WA14. Let me know if that's any help. Regards, Tom
 
Many thanks for the post.
Does it seem in decent condition and does it need welding to the centre section or just standard clamping? was told by BMW and others that the centre section and rear sections (both with silencers) came as one expensive part.

If it's genuinely usable and straightforward enough to attach, I'd be happy to take it off your hands for the £30.

cheers
Gordon

Hi Gordon,

You sent your last message in the wrong thread.
Backbox seems to be in a good state, all I have done is give it a wash since getting it from Jamie. However had decided to mod my original backbox instead of his. Hence this one is still in a fully oem state. It will need to be welded on, as all boxes would on a standard exhaust.

Happy to let it go for £30 collection, I'll have to have a think about posting though. As I'm not sure I'll fancy the time/effort (as I'm about to move abroad, and heaps of things to do/organise).

Currently away from home, so I'll get back to you on that. Probably Friday. Cheers, Tom

Hi Gordon,

I've just looked into this.
Unfortunately I have decided against sending the backbox off. Firstly because shipping would most likely be about £20. But secondly because it would cost me more time and effort to ship it off to you, than that I have room for at the moment.

I do apologise I couldn't be of better help!
 
No problem i guess. It's your backbox.
I did however kinda think that the point of forums was to help out others.
 
Im still looking for a good secondhand backbox for my 2006 2.5si. If anyone can hekp, please let me know, msny thanks.

I do realise that, the offer stands for you to pick it up..
 
lawman,
Are you still after a backbox? I've just replaced my DLV modified back box with a quad, it's off a 2006 coupe which I think will fit a 2.5(if I'm wrong I'm sure someone will say) £70 collected,
Cheers
 
Yes i am thanks.
Cd you send any picture of it and i can check out if it fits?

What is DLV modified?
And what model of z4 coupe do you have?

Gordon
 
Hello lawman, the DLV is the name of a forum member on here who used to exchange your back box with one of his modified ones (plus a £££ his way) they give a deeper sporty sound by removing some baffles or some sort of witch craft, I'm sure there's a few clips on here, it came from my coupe, a 3.0 si. Here's a couple of pics
Cheers
