the towing company has agreed to pay for the tips...i wouldnt have said anything if they were just scuffed on bottom but they are really scratched and left a small gouge in the very tip of the driverside causing a real eye sore...does anyone have a part number or even know if they sell these tips without the system?....

thanks everyone that replies

my car got hit in the rear and bent one of the tips..it took me forever to find a replacement..i called several sponsers on here and was told to call magnaflow directly. magnaflow finally sold me one but didnt want to. They told me they only sell them as a complete catback system. they guy finally said he would send one out but he didnt knwo how much it would cost. looked at my credit card statement and i ended up paying around 135 shipped for the one tip

^^You're brave... letting a company charge your card without you knowing the price

OP, if I were you, I'd get some brand new Corsa Clones. If not, I know there was a guy on a local forum selling the muffler and everything aft of it for under 100 bucks. Just FYI...

lastcall...if you could pm me with a link or whatever you have....if its the dual dual system then he has himself a deal....corsa clones are another option but as far as i know they stopped producing them and sold the last few sets...in any event i would like to get another set of the magnaflows because they are bigger then the corsa clones by an inch....i appreciate all the replys...if anyone knows where there is a link to corsa clones i would be interested to at least take a look at them...

thanks

hey man much apprieciated...from what i have gathered from other people post and a guy i know with a similar problem magnaflow is pretty reluctant to sell the tips separate...its sad though..they could make a killing in the LS1 community with these tips...assuming they were priced reasonably

thanks again?
