M3 exhaust dimension cat-back?

[m3ster]

I just sold my M3 exhaust I need to find a box that it will fit in. I would go measure the exhaust right now, but it is at a different location. Does anyone know how long it is, how wide and how tall? Thanks in advance.

Anyone?

You're going to be hard pressed to find a large enough box. What I'd do (and have done) is wrap the tips with several layers of cardboard to keep them from getting dented, then wrap the whole exhaust with bubble wrap, then do a layer of plastic shipping wrap (like saran wrap on a handle) over the bubble wrap to hold the whole thing together.

I've been able to buy boxes from U-Store It and similiar storage facilities. buy two of them and stick them over each end to join in the middle.

as Chris mentioned, be extra careful with the tips as the are the only cosmetic part of the system. I like what Remus does with their systems - they wrap them in bubble wrap and then stick a small cardboard box over them.

from there tape the two boxes to gether and drop them off at FedEx (cheaper the UPS lately and much more careful with your goods).
