Anyone Want to Trade Exhaust Tips?

I have a TTS with black exhaust tips.
Since my TTS is Black, I am hoping to switch them to chrome so they will contrast better with my Black paint.
Anyone interested in doing some kind of trade?
Mine have about 10K miles but are in Excellent condition.
Looking for the same condition chrome ones.

The clear taillights look great on your car. Does anyone make clear reflectors too?

I thought about clears but I don't think they would look good on white.

The black tips become plain chrome when you clean them with chrome polish. I’ve done this before, no need to switch tips.

You get them from bumper plugs and they make them to match the color of your car. Clear taillights, matched reflectors and clear corners is the only way to go.

May try the chrome polish.
Did you just use a cloth rag and the chrome polish??
Any particular brand polish?
Thanks!

I mostly use Meguiars but anything else should do the job as well.
Each tip is secured with one Torx bolt, a 10mm 6-point socket will fit but its better to use the proper E12 socket. These bolts have a tendency to seize even on brand new cars.
