BMW 116D M SPORT AUTO: Smooth Performance and Sporty Looks

This BMW 116D M SPORT AUTO was upgraded with an M140i rear conversion to give the vehicle a far more aggressive and sporty rear end appearance. The conversion focuses on transforming the back of the car to replicate the twin exit M140i styling, enhancing both the visual presence and overall stance of the vehicle. As part of the process, the exhaust layout was modified to suit the new twin exit configuration, ensuring proper alignment and a clean factory style finish using a BMW 116D Exhaust setup.
