The Akrapovic TP-CT/10 Carbon Fiber Tail Pipe Set is a precision-crafted set of high gloss carbon exhaust tip covers engineered for the 2011-2017 BMW M5 (F10), the 2012-2018 BMW M6 (F12/F13 Coupe and Convertible), and the 2013-2018 BMW M6 Gran Coupe (F06). Designed to work with compatible Akrapovic exhaust systems on these S63-powered BMW M cars, the TP-CT/10 delivers a motorsport-grade carbon fiber appearance at the exhaust outlets using the same high gloss woven carbon fiber and UV-resistant clear coat construction Akrapovic applies across their full accessory lineup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the TP-CT/10 fit the BMW M6 in addition to the M5?

Yes. The TP-CT/10 is confirmed fitment for the BMW M5 F10 Sedan (2011-2016), BMW M6 F12 Coupe (2012-2018), BMW M6 F13 Convertible (2012-2018), and BMW M6 Gran Coupe F06 (2013-2018). All of these vehicles share the S63 engine and compatible exhaust outlet architecture when paired with the appropriate Akrapovic system.

Does the TP-CT/10 require an Akrapovic exhaust to be installed first?

Yes. The TP-CT/10 carbon tip covers mount onto a compatible Akrapovic exhaust system for the M5 F10 or M6 F12/F13/F06. They are not compatible with the OEM BMW M5 or M6 factory exhaust system.

What body styles of the M6 does the TP-CT/10 cover?

The TP-CT/10 covers all three M6 body styles on the F1x platform: the M6 Coupe (F12), the M6 Convertible (F13), and the M6 Gran Coupe (F06). All three share the same S63 engine and compatible exhaust exit architecture when fitted with the appropriate Akrapovic system.

What year range of BMW M5 F10 does this fit?

The TP-CT/10 covers the 2011-2016 BMW M5 F10 Sedan. Note that the M5 F10 generation ran through the 2016 model year in the US market. Always verify your specific M5 F10 exhaust configuration with Akrapovic’s fitment guide before purchasing.

Is any permanent modification required for installation?

No. The TP-CT/10 uses direct bolt-on fitment with the hardware included in the set. No cutting, welding, or drilling to the M5 or M6 bumper or exhaust is required.

What maintenance does the carbon finish require?

Hand wash with a pH-neutral 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. Inspect for stone chips periodically and confirm fastener security after long highway drives.

How does the TP-CT/10 carbon appearance compare to OEM M5/M6 exhaust tips?

The OEM BMW M5 F10 and M6 exhaust tips are polished chrome or brushed stainless steel. The TP-CT/10 replaces the visible tip finish with high gloss motorsport carbon fiber, delivering a more aggressive and premium appearance at the rear of the vehicle that matches the Akrapovic exhaust system aesthetic.

Is the TP-CT/10 a genuine Akrapovic part?

Yes. The TP-CT/10 is manufactured by Akrapovic d.d. at their production facility in Slovenia under the official Akrapovic part number. It is not an aftermarket replica or third-party copy.

Installation Instructions

1. Confirm a compatible Akrapovic exhaust system is installed on the BMW M5 F10 or M6 F12/F13/F06 before beginning.
2. Allow the exhaust to cool fully before handling any tip covers or hardware.
3. Locate the tip mounting points on the Akrapovic muffler at each exhaust outlet.
4. Position the first carbon tip cover over the outlet and align the mounting tabs with the muffler receiver.
5. Insert fasteners by hand and confirm the cover sits flush before applying torque.
6. Torque all fasteners to the specification listed in the Akrapovic instruction sheet included in the set.
7. Repeat for all remaining tip covers, working symmetrically across both sides of the vehicle.
8. Start the vehicle and inspect all covers for alignment and security after reaching operating temperature.
