I'm considering changing my stock exhaust tips to the twin type from either Schnell or Fabspeed.
The Schnell's cost quite a bit less than the Fabspeed.
I am leaning toward the Fabspeed because I prefer the separate twin tube look rather than Schnell's tube overlap look.
Any advice on construction and look?
Thanks!

How about this pic for comparison....

I had the stock wide ovals, which are nice BTW, but I did the FS Tips to change it up. close clearance but they fit. my car doesn't run hot, but I do notice that the radiant heat is starting to bubble the paint close to the tips..my .02
here's another close-up:

Folks, thanks for all the great advice.
From the pics I wonder if the single wide oval would look better than the twin pipes? From the pic provided previously it doesn't look like the twin pipe fits too well.
Or maybe even the Schnell might fit better?

Looks like I'm going with Fabspeed.
A buddy of mine didn't think much of the quality of construction of the Schnell products.
Any thoughts between the large oval and the twin tips?
My only concern is how they fit in the cutout.

The twin tips fit perfectly. Make sure you order the tips for the MK2 as they are a little longer. Not sure what color your 996 is, but the black chrome tips are awesome...
