Does anyone know if this is a good fit? They seem to be exactly similar based on the stock pictures.

the muffler's hanger/mounting locations may be different. kong24680

Not sure about the 35i engine exhaust, but for the m5/m6 everything was plug and play other than the hangers. Any reputable local exhaust shop should be able to help you make new hangers.

Thanks for the input. The hanger/mounts look to be close, but as you said it will be relatively easy to modify.

Just a quick update. All the mounts were in the exact same place. But the dimples were useless in determining where to cut. We ended up cutting almost 4 cm less from the original muffler. Sounds great though, no droning and a very nice sound starting up and accelerating.

Is it that hanger, mount is exactly the same as 535i?

Yes, exactly the same. Just measure the cut-off point very well. The dimple is no use.
