Looking at changing out the factory brushed tips (w/o replacing exhaust) and am curious which come recommended? Also, is this as simple as what it appears? Unbolt OEM and bolt on new.

Here is one set I was looking at.

Thanks in advance for the input.

List for $450 - but I don't know what I should be paying

 

I've looked at these as well as my stock tips seem to be too difficult to keep clean. And when I get around to cleaning them, they are pretty difficult to get back to any semblance of 'clean'. Would these be any easier to keep nice and shiny? Not sure it's worth $450 otherwise.

 

The FS are very nice and clean up pretty well - much better than the OEM; I'd describe them as "crisper" and I like the SS. However, took me 'only' 2 hours to install them on my new FS mufflers because the smaller adapter ring was too sloppy and the larger was too tight and the tail pipe on the right muffler did not exit parallel to the centerline of my car. Still, look good and thankful FS gave me a decent discount on the package. There are threads here with other suppliers, including several of our sponsors.

 

I like the chrome Porsche OEM tips available from Suncoast...I just havent convinced myself that they are worth $634 yet....lol.

The Fabspeed tips are real nice for the cost. So are the AWE .
A little more $$ there's Techart .
I also love my FVD .

Lots of choices .

 

i tried searching for FVD exhaust tips but couldnt find them.. do they only come with the complete exhaust or can u buy them separately..

 

I have the complete exhaust (love it too!!) but FVD are site sponsors . They would be better able to answer your question.

 

I have a set of OEM polished CarreraS tips if interested a tad yellowed, but shiny as heck, and would likely clean up nicely with some elbow grease. I'll sell him for $250 shipped Pm me for pics if interested
