FabSpeed Exhaust Tips

Did it this am. Took 15 minutes to swap em out. I love the look and chose them because they do not tatoo their name on it. Here are a few pics.

They look great, your car looks great. I was looking at these and AWE's this morning, but agree with you about the "tatoo" thing. The Techarts are nice, but they remind me too much of the OEM 996 TT tips and the price.......

Edit - just called Fabspeed and they're out of stock for 12-14 days.

I'm waiting for a quote from Suncoast on a whole bunch of stuff, those tips included.

They look great. Your car looks a million times better than mine.

They look good. I think they might look even better powder coated black.

Those tips look great, and in my opinion, much better than the stocks.

Did you just replace the tips, and nothing else, so in effect, it is just for the aesthetics? Also, where did you take the car to have them installed, and one last thing, they look like they stick out just like the stocks. Is that true, or in your opinion, a little more?

Thanks

By the way, I love the white cab.. I have the same car, with cocoa.

I like the look very much. I've got a white/terracotta Cab TT coming in July and I think a pair is in order. Thanks for sharing.

I have them as well. Love them. That said, the black will be a million times easier to maintain. They stay chrome for about 10 minutes. Attached is a pic of what they actually look like with use.

Fabspeed tips are really nice. I had a fabspeed exhaust and tips on my 996 and loved it. They don't shout LOOK AT ME! They just look good, and purposeful.

Quite simple and straight forward. The 997tt stuff is a matter of a couple bolts, and unlike the cheap knock-off 996tt stuff on eBay, the nut doesn't snap off as soon as you start to torque it down!

Loosen and romove the stock tips, line these up and tighten them down.
