I dismantled my Fabspeed tips because i use the car in the winter and don´t want them to be corroded by the salt on the roads.

It´s correct, after a few hot miles they are getting a little bit yellow, but i like the tone, so you can see that there is some energy in the back of your car . Hey it´s a tip.....

They are really good quality and very well made, i didn´t polished them before the pictures:



handcrafted American quality:



you can also use them as a piece of art on your coffee table

FWIW, I found the absolute best stuff to polish the tips with. I bought a pair of slightly used Fabspeed tips and tried everything in the world to get the yellow (burnt looking) discoloration off and discovered this stuff called Blue Magic Metal Polish Cream @ Auto Zone and I used one of those ball shaped polishers you put on a drill and holy cow this stuff took everything completely off and made them look brand spank me new again. Now put a little rejex on it and you are in business.

My only problem with FabSpeed tips was alignment. First attempt resulted my tips pointing almost sideways:

After loosing up the muffler connection I managed to line them up a bit better:

But still I have this feeling my other tip is somewhat limb and pointing sideways.

Anyway: A++ class craftmanship and superior look. Recommend to all 997TT's.
