1. They will not install over the 335i's ss exhaust tips...you'd have to cut your oem ss tips off, I believe. and 2. Why in the world would you spend $$ to replace the oem ss exhaust tips with other ss exhaust tips...just for the "Borla" name engraved on top? You know just the tips won't add any performance or sound, right?
Also, if you notice, the description says "Universal Exhaust Tip;" these are not specifically made for the 335i.

Search around for threads on aftermarket 335i exhausts...some of the best and reasonably priced are the Vishnu, Milltek, Ultimate Racing, RD Sport, Borla (full cat-back for the 335i), and a few others. At least with a decent cat-back exhaust, you'll get some performance gain and better exhaust note (unlike the passive tips which do nothing other than look good...and you already have those with the oem ss exhaust tips. ).

Come on bro! Install some catbacks. I'm pleased with my Vishnu. They are 4 inches wide. Nice deep rumble. No ricey sound. Roughly 15 - 20 hp power boost. Snap on tips are only cosmetic.
