335d exhaust - lost cause?
Discussion
Hi, I've recently got an F30 335d xDrive M Sport Shadow Edition which I absolutely love with one small, and some may say insignificant thing. It has the twin exhaust and it coming out of one side of the diffuser is having a little mess with my brain.
Hark, I hear you collectively shout, that is easily solved with a backbox delete dual exit pipe and new diffuser which I have seen and, indeed, would be my ideal solution...except...yeah, that's right, it's an Adblue car... Having had a look around, every dual system says not suitable for Adblue without mucho-faffness if even possible.
So, my question to the PH collective is - is it possible relatively easily or absolutely not?
Not mechanically minded at all btw so no clever DIY solutions come to mind, but I did look at it underneath the other week when it was having new tyres fitted and it crossed my mind that if a different shaped Adblue tank (cut out where the pipe runs through) and/or relocating to where the backbox was (maybe a "flatter" Adblue tank?) then one could have one's cake and eat it too.
Am I dreaming, or is it not possible without some in-depth surgery.
Pics are in the sold section of Targa Florio Cars if anyone fancies a nosey.
Thanks, PR

Have a browse here and compare the G20 340d and your car to see how BMW got around that problem:
