Are the exhaust tips pictured stock? They look maybe a little bigger than normal? if not stock, then what are they, if anyone can tell?

Can't really tell by the pic (too dark) my guess is they are OEM large ovals.

I am in the market for set of the large ovals. Let me know if anyone has a spare set laying around. And yes there are some enticing large ovals on ebay at the moment but not sure if they fit widebody. I have email to seller.

Anyone out there who can help?

Regards, Gary

Gary:

Which tips are you referring to on ebay? I can take a look and see if they might work. The muffler tips for the C2S and C4S have a slight offset to them versus the tips for the narrow body cars which are straight. As an alternative, you might want to look at the Dansk oval tips, they are reasonable priced ~$250. OEM ovals are hard to come by but they do pop up once in a blue moon. Good luck

They look like the factory chrome oval tips (option code X54), I have them on my car. I think they are over $600...I think Gert's have them. They're ridiculously expensive but beautiful.

My car has these tips and does not have the motor sound package. The only other tips I know of are the small 95 tips and the optional large ovals. So I'm kinda confused as to why everyone calls these the motor sound tips. I there a different tip?

Thanks

With Motorsound, what are normally dull finish stock tips are chromed like in the pic -- maybe I should just say "shiny" like in the pic. I don't know if it's chrome or not.

I have seen the rectangular tips on stock cars (a Carrera 4) My car has the motorsound package and comes with the chromed large ovals.
