Frequently Asked Questions
Does the TP-CT/60 fit both the X4 M and X4 M Competition?Yes. This carbon tail pipe set is confirmed fitment for both the 2019-2020 BMW X4 M and the 2019-2020 BMW X4 M Competition (F98). Both trims use the same exhaust outlet architecture, making the TP-CT/60 compatible across the full X4 M lineup for those years.
Does this tail pipe set require the Akrapovic exhaust to be installed first?Yes. The TP-CT/60 carbon tip covers are designed to mount onto a compatible Akrapovic Slip-On Line (Titanium) exhaust system for the BMW X4 M F98. They do not attach to the OEM BMW X4 M exhaust. An Akrapovic exhaust system must be installed before fitting these carbon tips.
What years of BMW X4 M does this fit?This tail pipe set fits the 2019 and 2020 model year BMW X4 M (F98) in both M and M Competition trim levels. The F98 platform spans these two years for the initial generation before the subsequent updates.
Is the TP-CT/60 the same product as the TP-CT/59?No. While the TP-CT/60 and TP-CT/59 are very similar in design and construction, they are platform-specific. The TP-CT/60 is engineered for the BMW X4 M (F98), while the TP-CT/59 is designed for the BMW X3 M (F97). Although the X3 M and X4 M share the S58 engine platform, their exhaust system interfaces differ, so each vehicle requires its specific tail pipe set.
Does installation require any bumper modification?No. These carbon tips bolt directly onto compatible Akrapovic exhaust systems using the included hardware. No cutting, drilling, or permanent modification to the X4 M bumper or exhaust is needed. All fasteners are included.
Is this product street legal?These are cosmetic tail pipe covers and do not alter exhaust emissions or sound output. Road legality is determined by the Akrapovic exhaust system they are installed on, not by these tip covers themselves.
What maintenance does the carbon finish require?Hand wash with a pH-neutral car shampoo and apply a carnauba or ceramic spray wax periodically to protect the high gloss clear coat. Avoid abrasive brushes and solvent-based cleaners on the carbon surface. Since these covers sit near the exhaust outlets, inspect for stone chips and loosened hardware periodically.
How does this compare to the OEM BMW X4 M exhaust tips?The OEM BMW X4 M exhaust exits feature the factory tip design in a polished or brushed metal finish. These carbon fiber covers bring a motorsport-grade material upgrade with the distinctive high gloss carbon weave appearance, providing a more premium and performance-oriented look at the rear of the vehicle.
Can I run these tips with the Akrapovic Evolution Line for the X4 M?Compatibility with the Evolution Line depends on the specific Akrapovic exhaust model for the X4 M F98 and whether the tip mounting interface is shared. Confirm compatibility with the specific Akrapovic exhaust model you have before purchasing. The TP-CT/60 is confirmed compatible with the Slip-On Line for the F98 platform.
Installation Instructions
- Confirm a compatible Akrapovic exhaust system is installed on the BMW X4 M F98 before beginning.
- Allow the exhaust to cool fully 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 the mounting tabs with the muffler receiver.
- Insert fasteners by hand and confirm the cover sits flush before applying torque.
- Torque all fasteners to the specification in the Akrapovic instruction sheet included with the set.
- Repeat for all remaining tip covers, working symmetrically across both sides.
- Start the vehicle and inspect all covers for alignment and security after reaching operating temperature.
