Default 997.1 exhaust options

Hey guys, my new to me 07' 997 S has what Porsche calls the Stainless Steel exhaust option. What exactly is this? Thanks!

I expected this to be a different type of thread, lol. Congrats on your new car! Post up some pics if you have a chance.

You can also have your tips coated with a black ceramic so that you don't have to try to keep them clean all the time.

I like the idea of not having to clean them all the time. Those NEVR DULL pads work really well if you stay on top of em.

I saw a pair of black ceramic coated tips on a Targa 4s (997.2) at Ledson winery last year - they had a gloss finish, but looked amazing.

The black tips with the blue look great.

All you gotta do is hit them with a simple car wash sponge (not the one you are washing with)when you wash. Thats way you dont get any build up and makes it super easy to maintain. It only sucks if you let it build up!
