With a Saws-all anything is possible

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Joking aside, the body is the same shape - it should be possible with slight modification. Maybe find a custom shop near you and ask them. It'll surely cost you a little green though.

I wouldn't mind doing this too but think I'll keep mine as is for the foreseeable future. This is my first Diesel car.

went to a local muffler shop that specialize in custom exhaust for Corvettes and Japanese sports cars. The owner showed me several styles of dual exhaust tips that can easily be welded to the existing "hidden" tips on the X1. There was one that I really liked. One on each side, so it will end up looking almost like the quad exhaust tips on the M35i X1. 495 for the two dual-exhaust tips and a few inches of pipes, plus $120 for the labor.

Not sure if I want to go down that road, but worst case, it's easily reversible if I ever change my mind after a few weeks or months.

Would love to see the end result!
