For $110 shipped? Better? yeah right.

Thanks for the tips guys.

I did see someone saying that there hard to clean but the Mr clean auto magic eraser would shine them up. I use is on my stock tips and they shine.

Here is an example:

Before: Didn't purchase them for you ~Joshua becaue your's were more expensive. I got mine for 90 shipped. PM me if you want that info.



That is a nasty rear-end. The tips are too feminine, too small and look like pencil-rolled tips instead.

After:

Oh yea baby!! Oh, and I got these bad boys for 85 bux. Beat that.

And this was a bitch to clean up, really.
Buddy, don't blame the tips for your bad tune. There is no reason your exhaust should cake up like that, at least not fast. Once you let it get too bad they are hard to ever revamp.

I suggest to everyone that you buy a tub of polish just for the tips. It makes the car look so much better when the tips are clean.

That's what I had thought too but with the addition of my new tips, I have yet to clean them thoroughly. A quick wipe down of the exterior is all that is needed.

I have the SLP Slants, and there is no thickness to them from behind. Im just sick of them, they are so thin, plus I want my rear filled in on the TA. I think that no matter what exhaust tips you have they are going to get dirty and its just a maintain type of thing. Im always cleaning mine. Any car will make tips black. Its all about that TLC
