Yes, that is my former car, but it was Lapis Blue, not black. They are OE tips and could be ordered as an option on the C2 and the C4/C4S. The original owner of the car ordered them with the car and were a direct fit, no adjustments were necessary to the bumper cover opening.

Notice Tim's factory tips have a large complete oval and a smaller partial oval. The knockoff/after market tips usually get this wrong by making the smaller oval complete and the larger oval partial. It's a dead giveaway and seems to be the majority of the ones I see on the street. Just a FYI....

Thanks for the info and the pics gota911. Your car looks great! I see you also had the Turbo wheels........very nice! Good to know that the exhaust tips are a direct fit! Much more appealing for the DIY installer like me!
I am going to start searching for a set. Is there a specific name for these? What are they called?

ShaneSaw.........thanks for the info. Yes, I have seen some of the aftermarket tips. I didn't catch it at first, but I knew right away that something didn't look right about them. I think I remember seeing some that weren't even oval. They were just 1-1/2 actual round exhaust tips!
