If it has not body kit then angled tails with OEM chrome tips.

Mine :
Has been replaced with a stainless system at some point but I think its the same design as the OEM stuff.
I like the angled stuff as well but its a bit marmite

My Dad's old 1987 325i had a GSF replacement back box which was straight out stright cut!
Its just preference I think? I will have a look for some pictures for you!

These are all 325i's!
Straight out, straight cut!
Sort of kink to the side, But straight out, Straight cut!
Straight out, Slash cut!
Angled exit, slash cut!

If it was my car I personally prefer the slash cut, But don't mind either angled or straight exit!
Either way twin pipes ftw!

If your getting scorpion STW tails then get them without the gash scorpion logo. I did.

Danthe --> did you get the STW version?
I am also very tempted by the STW scorpion for my chromie cab.
Is the length of the tailpipes the same for Le Mans and STW?
I contacted Scorpion and they can make a backbox with STW tips, but I will have to wait until they make a new batch of e30 exhausts...
Other places to buy?
