Stepdad has a new to him 997.1 C4S Cab he wants to change the exhaust tips. Where can we source some He likes the concentric circles ones and just wants to view his options. Ho tough is the swap?

 

Every exhaust shop near you and most on-line exhaust manufacturer's have tips. You'll just have to find some you/he likes and have them welded on. Pretty simple.

Thank you! I think those will be perfect

Any discounts from vendors on here for these tips?

 

is welding really necessary?

 

no welding. they attach with a built in screw clamp.

 

Necessary? No. Cheaper than losing one tip, yes. Are you planning on doing just necessary things to the car, or the proper ones?

 

I added Vertex quad tips (with a screw-on clamp) over a year ago and they haven't fallen off yet. So while I agree with you in principle that having the exhaust tips welded is MUCH cheaper than replacing one, I respectfully disagree that welding is either necessary or proper. I add that my factory tips weren't welded.

 

I have OEM PSE tips FS, if anyone is interested - can't post in the market place yet.

 

True. Some aren't but most are. More loss would come from theft than falling off. Also no chance of them moving when welded.

 

A couple of tack welds would be sufficient...

 

Suncoast Porsche is a good place to start. Google it. Also are a number of vendors on the site that handle Porsche exhausts. Google Porsche exhaust and you'll find the few available options. Only a few manufacturers of tips specificly for Porsches so it won't take you long to narrow down a final choice. Fabspeed makes tips that look OEM. You can find 'em on ebay as well.
