Having issues fitting an m850i downpipe on my car the current issues other than the difficulty of getting to them is that there's exahust flanges that connect the two pieces together as shown in the picture now one seems removable but the other is sandwiched between the great box and the starter i believe , also the exahust seems too short to be right.
Any info from someone who has done this to their car would be extremely helpful, currently in contact with the company that manufactures the down pipe and hoping for a reply by Monday.
