Got my Fabspeed polished tips.

To take off my 991 stock tips, I used an E12 reverse torx socket. You can get a set here:
Amazon.com: Anytime Tools 11 pc FEMALE E-TORX (Star) SOCKET Set w/RAIL E4 - E20: Home & Kitchen Amazon.com: Anytime Tools 11 pc FEMALE E-TORX (Star) SOCKET Set w/RAIL E4 - E20: Home & Kitchen

Here's the result:

Love the clear tails on white. Have you thought about wrapping the roof black?

Love the look of your car! It really comes together nicely! You should wrap the roof! I had mine done a couple of weeks ago and I think it came out great. Looks nice on the white with dark wheels!

Not sure about the roof wrap. How does it look with the sunroof open?

AoshichanX, very nice car. A bit biased as I also have a white 991 with the same wheels. Love your upgrades and appreciate the detail of your changes. Your diary shows the twin tip exhaust was purchased through Fabspeed. Went to their web page and I read that they will only fit an S exhaust system. But based on your post it appears it was as simple as pulling off the wide tips and reinstalling the twin tips. Is that correct? And thank you again for your post.

Your white car would look better with Silver wheels.
You should trade wheels with me.

Those clear tails really work on your car.
