I know. Just frustrated from recent dealings with the car and just not in the mood to deal with something so trivial as exhaust tips right now.
Is this with active exhaust?I originally tried the bolt on tips but one day on the motorway one of the tips came loose and it wasn't until I got home that I realized that it was just hanging limply at an extremely lame downwards angle. They otherwise did look good. I went out and bought weld on tips of which there is a bit of a variety available. Small cost for an exhaust shop to measure and cut off the OEM tips and weld these on.
Good to know, shit happens as to welding that would be the last option. Why because there is always that last tweak to get the alignment dialed in.
Yes they are. We cannot buy an 18+ in Aus. without active.
Good work, walking away from problems solves many ......Ok now that I wasn't a hothead, I got these installed pretty snug.
Looks great Mike!Ok now that I wasn't a hothead, I got these installed pretty snug.
Those turned out really good! Makes me want to pull the trigger on a set as well.Ok now that I wasn't a hothead, I got these installed pretty snug.
Thank you! Happy to provide other pics and angles if it'll help your decision.Those turned out really good! Makes me want to pull the trigger on a set as well.
Absolutely if you don’t mind. I’m curious to know how the tightening bolt looks with the black tips and if it’s very visible or not. Do you think that the new tips stick out much further than the stock tips? Thank you!Thank you! Happy to provide other pics and angles if it'll help your decision.
New tips stick out a couple inches further than stock (maybe two). That is a bit noticeable imo. Here's a closeup of the tip and bolt. I don't see them unless bending down to see.
That’s not too bad imo. I’d expect it to be out a bit further but I didn’t want it to be obnoxiously long if that makes sense.New tips stick out a couple inches further than stock. That is a bit noticeable imo. Here's a closeup of the tip and bolt.
I'll get pics of the gap when I get home. There's not a ton, but enough where I am not concerned of them hitting each other. Maybe a third inch. Did not end up using the wrap. Just need to position them correctly on the tips.
Gotcha, that’s great to hear! And thank you for working to take some more pics. Definitely no rush. These look like a great alternative to having to replace the entire exhaust just to change out the tips.
