Frequently Asked Questions
What does the RS suffix mean on the TP-CT/47/RS?The RS designation indicates that this carbon tail pipe set includes the red and white Akrapovic logo badge integrated into the carbon tip cover. The standard TP-CT/47 uses plain carbon without the logo. The TP-CT/47/RS is the badge version, adding the recognizable Akrapovic identity marker for owners who want the full branded appearance.
Does the TP-CT/47/RS fit both the M5 and M5 Competition?Yes. The TP-CT/47/RS is confirmed fitment for the 2018-2020 BMW M5, the 2019-2020 M5 Competition, and the 2020 M5 Edition 35 Years on the F90 platform. All three variants share the same exhaust outlet architecture with the Akrapovic Evolution Line, making the TP-CT/47/RS compatible across the full F90 M5 range.
Does the TP-CT/47/RS require the Akrapovic Evolution Line exhaust?Yes. The TP-CT/47/RS carbon tips are engineered to mount onto the Akrapovic Evolution Line exhaust system for the BMW M5 F90. They will not attach to the OEM BMW M5 factory exhaust system. The Akrapovic exhaust must be installed first before fitting these carbon tip covers.
Is the TP-CT/47/RS compatible with the M5 Edition 35 Years?Yes. The 2020 BMW M5 Edition 35 Years is an F90-platform M5 variant and is listed in the confirmed fitment for the TP-CT/47/RS. All Edition 35 Years vehicles share the same exhaust architecture as the standard M5 and M5 Competition when paired with the Akrapovic Evolution Line.
Is any bumper modification required for installation?No. The TP-CT/47/RS uses direct bolt-on fitment using the hardware included in the set. No cutting, drilling, or permanent modification to the BMW M5 F90 bumper or exhaust is required.
What is the difference between the left-side and the full set?Some retailers list left-side-only and right-side-only variants separately. The TP-CT/47/RS listed here is the complete set covering all exhaust outlets on the BMW M5 F90. Verify with the listing details if you need only one side versus the complete set for your application.
How should I maintain the carbon and logo badge finish?Hand wash using a pH-neutral car shampoo. Apply a carnauba or ceramic spray wax periodically to the carbon surface to protect the high gloss clear coat. Avoid abrasive pads or solvent-based cleaners. The red and white logo badge area should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth only, as aggressive cleaners may affect the badge finish over time.
How does the TP-CT/47/RS compare to OEM BMW M5 exhaust tips?The OEM BMW M5 F90 exhaust exits use polished chrome or brushed stainless steel tips. The TP-CT/47/RS replaces the visible tip finish with high gloss carbon fiber and adds the red and white Akrapovic logo, delivering a motorsport-grade visual upgrade that signals the presence of the Akrapovic Evolution Line exhaust beneath.
Installation Instructions
- Confirm the Akrapovic Evolution Line exhaust is fully installed on the BMW M5 F90 before beginning.
- Allow the exhaust system to cool completely before handling any tip covers or hardware.
- Locate the tip mounting points on the Akrapovic muffler at each exhaust outlet.
- Position the first carbon tip cover over the outlet and align all mounting tabs with the muffler receiver points.
- Insert fasteners by hand and confirm the tip sits flush and the logo badge is oriented correctly before applying torque.
- Torque all fasteners to the specification listed in the Akrapovic instruction sheet included in the set.
- Repeat for all remaining tips, working symmetrically across both sides of the vehicle.
- Start the vehicle and inspect all covers for proper alignment and security after reaching operating temperature.
