Fabspeed tips are the best. Techart's are also popular, but the lines don't really look good on a turbo, jmo.

Because of the heat, ceramic coating is the way to go, not powder coating.

Oops, your correct. You want to heat cycle them with ceramic paint to get the best bond.

I'm a fan of TechArt (obvious reasons).
Those look a little out of place, too "aftermarket-ish" IMHO

"Only" 800? I thought it was more? I too have Cargraphic Loud exhaust; I bought Fabspeed exhaust (and love the look) but only because I thought the Cargraphic tip was a lot more expensive. Fabspeed is probably the most popular tip around here because it is very well made, it is ROUND, and it looks great.

The main thing I look for is ROUND exhaust tip, nothing fancy, I just want ROUND exhaust tips . In this sense, both Fabspeed and Cargraphic are double round and essentially the same, no? As the Fabspeed tip is already around $700, personally I would pay 100 more to get Cargraphic since you have Cargraphic exhaust. "Complete" the system so to speak.

Below is pic of my Fabspeed tip on Cargraphic exhaust. My only (minor) complaint about the Fabspeed tip is that it seems very heavy, although I don't have any idea how heavy other after market tips are.

Take a look at these tips.

These are less than $450/pair.

OP I'm on the same boat as you. I got a cargraphic exhaust and I'm looking for tips right now..... You can get a brand new Fabspeed set for $500 from a vendor here

Really? Ok $500 is pretty low and now my vote would have to be with Fabspeed. Who is the vendor please - it's ok to mention names here I believe.
