Default Has anyone tried QSC Exhaust Tips

I've seen them on Amazon and eBay.
I know you get what you pay for but wondering if anyone has first hand experience with them.
There was a post in the 991 forum a while back and that's about all I could find.

Thx

Don't know them but very pleased with the Stainless NHP ones I put on my Cayenne Turbo S if looking for a lower cost option than the normal ones (Fabspeed, TechArt, FVD, etc). They're sold by Maxspeed Motorsports.

I have those tips...they're a little bigger & look better than stock, IMO, they're great quality

Just to verify, you have the QSC tips I was asking about or the NHP that Petza was referring to?
And how long have you had them?
Have they been somewhat easy to maintain?

Thanks

If you're worried about having to keep chrome tips sparkly and shiny, perhaps look into ceramic coating your existing tips? I had mine done this past winter, and now don't worry about them any more! That said, as my car has PSE, it is basically impossible to find aftermarket tips for them, so I had limited options for changing up the look.

Yes, QSC tips. I have them over a year & no problem with discoloring, fading, etc. I polished them with mother's polishing kit...easy peasy..

Those look really similar to the pair that I bought from these guys: https://www.racdyn-usa.com/PROD/997+08+00+372.html

Mine were chrome, but I wanted them to match my black stone guards, wheels, etc. I checked one for size to make sure it fit (the big mistake, should have checked both) and sent it off to get them ceramic coated in black. When I went to install, I realized that the tolerances were off on the second tip and it was way too large. When the screw was tightened all the way down, the new tip was still really loose. Obviously, I should have checked before I modified, but even still the guys I bought them from were no help and didn't even return my last two emails.

I thought I was going to save myself $400-$500 compared to some of the other good looking dual tips out there. After the time and $$ for the customization from an exhaust shop, I probably would have been better off going with the Fabspeed tips or something like that.

Buying from Amazon, should be easy if you have an issue, but thought I would share as it looks like about the same as what I purchased.

They look a lot like the Fabspeed's that I put on.
Either way, they're so much easier to maintain. Just a paper towel with Windex and wipe.
Way too easy
