Anyway- thanks for reading and i'm open to suggestions!
I think the Magnaflow offers great value for money for the 128i. Sound character & weight savings (you ditch OEM heavy muffle & resonator for lightweight versions). I would get the Magnaflow tips in black/painted black to get that 135i shadow line look. BMW PE only does muffler and weights not much less.

I dont know how it will sound with Headers, but thats something you risk
