Left tip farther out?

tomtom11 · 03-05-2015, 12:16 PM

Alright so I was backing out of my driveway this morning and I was going no more than 3mph. I backed into a snowbank in my drive way and I thought everything was fine so I drove the car to my destination about 5 minutes away. When I got there I looked at the back of the car and the bumper looked fine, but the left exhaust tip looks as though it actually sticks out further than it did before?!?!? I looked under the car and everything looks perfectly fine. Maybe it's possible it was always like that (I have aftermarket tips). Or could something be wrong that I'm not seeing?

You probably just over obsessing at this point, happens every time after you hit something. In order for your exhaust to stretch out you had to catch and pull on something pretty hard(like trying to pull a tank hard).

Just the tip?

This mystery has just deepened even more. I brought it to BMW and they put it up n the lift and said there is no possible way that the snowbank would have done that and hat must have been how it always was. I looked at older pictures of the car and it was 100% not like that before.
