Default Group Buy - 4" Exhaust Tips

Guys,

I'm trying to put togather a group buy for sets of 4" exhaust tips. These are for narrow body 993 ONLY. I'm shooting for a price of $250/set shipped. If there's enough of us, maybe less.

Here are some pics of the tips along with some before and after of them on a 96 993.

Chime in if your interested.

Question Exhaust tips for the wide body?

Hello,

Excuse my lack of knowledge, what's the difference between NB and WB regarding the exhaust tip fitting?

Thanks,
Tom

The WB tips are offset.

Something to consider. . .These are off eBay, $79.

Polished stainless with rolled lips. Fit is very good. Only downside is seller does not list grade of steel. Look great on my car.

Hal,
Thanks for the pic on your car. Very nice tips at an affordable price. Quick question: Do those tips from that ebay seller have a slight angled cut that follows the line of the bumper or are they straight cut?

The seller's pic looks like it is angled, then when I look at a different pic, it doesn't look angled.

Thanks,
Russ

I thought it was a fair price. These look like the Ruf tips which are $599.

What should I offer?

I wanna say I bought mine from "corvette dude"?, or whatever his name is on ebay, about a year ago for right around $100. Not trying to rain on anybody's parade, but $250 seems a little pricey.

I'd say the delta between what a lot of us have paid (~$100) and what you want to shoot for ($250) is pretty big. Who is making the ones you're interested in??? You might want to just contact corvette dude and see if he still sells them.
