    Muffler Hangers OEM vs CRP

    I'm about to install my Supersprint Exhaust. The Z came with Magna Flow exhaust and is m issing the 2 rear factory hangers. The other 2 are not in great shape. OEM hangers 28.00 each and CRP hangers 8.00 each.... Has anyone used CRP hangers or should I just buy OEM.. Big difference in price when you need 4 of them plus hardware. OR has anyone made there own and what did you use?

    Does CRP stand for crap?

    If your car was in my care, there would be no question about which hanger I'd install. To date, the only hangers I've seen fail, were the ones that were tasked with supporting the differential, via the exhaust pipes.

    Or, YOU could be the guinea pig...

    I always use that to find the cheapest price

    I'd try the cheap ones personally, worst case scenario you go to OEM later... but 4 for the cost of 1 OEM one sure makes it tempting to try!

    Thanks for the link. I hate wasting $$, I was tempted to buy CRP, but I found OEM ones on BMW Direct Parts for under 24 each and ordered some other parts too. Even though they charge shipping is was still cheaper then ECS TUNING...
