Are these Meisterschaft Downpipes?
I just received my 76mm direct OEM replacement Meisterschaft catless downpipes in the mail today and they don't look like any pics I ever viewed and I was told Meisterschaft was the best quality and fit but the flexy accordian pipe segment doesn't scream quality to me, but I don't know everything.
Are these legit? |

Where did you order them from?
I bought some $300 Catless DP off ebay that also have a flex joint like that. (They were $300 so I figured if they're garbage I can always return them) The flex is supposed to help for fitment upon install. Some OEM BMW downpipes also have flex joints so it doesn't necessarily mean lower quality. But it is super weird that they look nothing like what they've posted... |

They come in Friday so I'll make a post once I get them in this weekend. For the price I"m sure the stainless will be super thin, but some cerakote and heat wrap can fix that.

Shipment was delayed. They just got in today! They look great... well I guess any 3" pipe can "Look great" lol. The flex joint is hardly flexible, if I put all my super strength into it I can maybe get a .5-.75" of movement in one direction.
Maybe thats all it takes for fitment to be better? If they don't fit I'll most likely return and just gut the OEM downpipes. I'll make a full post for this! |
