Default My new ceramic coated exhaust tips!!!

Here are pics of what look like BRAND NEW exhaust tips. I sent them to Justin @ RennSport One to be ceramic coated and they look SICK. The first set are Fabspeed tips and the 2nd set are stock quad tips.

These tips were a little beat up and full of grease build up and they came back clean enough to eat off of. I am so happy with they way they turned out. If your tips are getting dull or you just want a subtle change, I highly recommend getting your tips ceramic coated. If you want RS1's info PM me! (I am not affiliated with them, just a satisfied loyal customer)

Thanks for the compliments! I've decided this is the best mod for the money, it isn't flashy, and it's cheap (around $100), but it really changes the demeanor of the car from the back. I'm assuming it will be a lot easier to keep clean than the stainless steel finish.

EDIT: This will be easier than PM'g everyone back. Here's his info:

Rennsport-One
p.305.328.9455
f. 305.390.0398
justin@rennsport-one.com
www.rennsport-one.com

He is a perfectionist and is very quick about turn around time. I've bought a handful of items from them and since I'm a novice DIY guy, it's nice to have someone who will walk you through the install if need be. Price is $125 includes shipping fedex shipping.

Looks great...and, you're right, they should be way easier to maintain.
Plus, if they get a little exhaust soot on 'em, who's gonna see it?

Also, really like the '911' badging.
Tips & badge = two very tasteful cosmetic mods that personalize your car.

Now, if you could just work that "soul of the German essence," or whatever slogan in somewhere.

I had a couple white 911s. They always looked slick.

This subtle exhaust tip mod is really very nice. I like just having 2 colors on the exterior of the car. Very tasteful and inspiring, too.

Good job by all ! I like it a great deal.

I am all over this! I have heard ceramic coated headers chip and crack with enough heat cycles. These look awesome and look like a bargain at the price. Do you have any idea of how they would wear over time? I guess they would never look any worse than the factory setup over the same period.

We did my wife's Orange Boxster LE exhaust tips over a year ago and they still look perfect. The ceramic coating is an extremely durable and attractive finish.

Thanks for all the compliments. It's amazing how this little change makes such a big difference. As for chipping and cracking I think you are referring to powder coating, which is a different process (from what I've been told).

These are easier to clean and will stay new looking for much longer! Just wipe with soap and water, no need to shine & buff.
