Nice. Pretty significant difference. Do you have PSE?

slingshot60 06-11-2016 10:46 PM

I do have PSE... Love it!

How is the sound? Differences between stock?

Chrome tips look great w Sapphire blue.

Can't tell much difference in sound... but sure is a big difference in looks. Sapphire is a little lighter shade, my car is Aqua Blue.

Nice tips. Congrats! :)

Nice! Thx for sharing. I ordered some FabSpeed tips back in Feb. Great quality & service. Unfortunately I ordered the tips for the non S car ($460) and the correct ones were almost $800! Then I found used OEM chromed S tips on eBay for $400: sold! Love them. I do not have PSE. Sold the originals to a fellow Rennlister so he could powder coat them in black. Here is a pic on one side of the after install:

They are pricey, but quality always does cost more. No regrets...

Dang, $800 for tips when a whole X pipe exhaust is $2k? Lol. The AWE tips are nice and more like 300-400 iirc

$800 for exhaust tips makes me cringe. I remember buying exhaust tips for a Nissan altima 3.5SE for $75 back in the day.:rockon:

I have the Fabspeed chrome exhaust tips on my 991 - outside chrome tarnished after 6 months and Fabspeed wouldn't do anything about it. I bought them from my Porsche dealer and they have stopped doing business with them.

Not sure where ya'll are getting $800??? They are $695 and you get a Rennlist Forum member discount--just ask for it... still not cheap but worth it for the quality. I've actually had them on for 4K miles now (I drive a lot!) and have noticed no change in color or shine. Still look as they did the day I put them on. Just clean them with Cerama Bryte (ceramic stove top cleaner--get it at Lowe's or Home Depot) each time I detail the car, in my case that's about once a week.

Nice, looks like a very well made product. Chrome looks great with the SB...enjoy!!!
