Default Black Exhaust Tips

What do you think????
I had ordered these tips and they were supposed to be chrome.
But there was a screw up and they came black.

Not bad, I've been thinking about getting mine painted matte black, tired of clean the chrome surface on the original...

I spoke with them today and ask about the tips being black.
He stated that they don't come in black andthat there must of been a screw up in manufacturing
The Tips are from Schnell dual exhaust tips for 1998-2001 996's
He was going to ship me out the correct ones and have UPS pick up the black ones

they look great on the silver car - get them to credit you a hundred bucks and get painted bumperettes from Eric.

keep them regardless imo.

I think it completes the rear color scheme with the black bumperettes and the black license plate...
