Default Tequipment titanium tailpipes GT3RS '07-'08

Who makes the Porsche tequipment titanium tailpipe for the GT3/RS?
Do you think you could bolt it on without removing the rear bumper?

Thanks.

Just the tailpipe section, nothing more.
Porsche is selling the bolt on pipes for over $1200. At Suncoast.

Yes you can attach those w/o removal of the back bumper ... $1200 ouch! ... I was lucky enough to get a set of Sharkwerks titanium tips when they were still making them!

enjoy!

Good move. I was wondering who makes them... Gotta be cheaper.
Once the Porsche part number goes on, you can count on a hefty markup. I like my original black tips, but may change if it's not too much of an effort... Lazy upgrade.

they look pretty cool when the Ti "blues" from the heat!

Sadly Alex stopped making them around the time of the Japan earthquake/Tsunami due to availability of Ti and/or manufacturing... or was that his Mg wheels???

Larger tips look great on GT3.
Hopefully you can find a Sharkwerks example!
