Final price is $1150 for part, $40 for FedEx. Originally was $1212 and $81 for UPS. Paramount is $1203 and $39 for FedEx. I've been ordering parts from Suncoast but now may switch to Paramount, since they are in NC the shipping is lower. Sonnen, Paramount and Sunset seem to have better prices and their sites are exactly the same layout. They show an exploded view of the components and you can click on the parts.
The tips came in but were the wrong ones even by verifying the vin #. Apparently the vin doesn't indicate if the vehicle is diesel. The V6 tips attach to the rear ports of the muffler and the diesel to the front ports. Returning and awaiting new tips.

Bummer, hate when that stuff happens. They'll be worth it though when you finally get it all sorted out.
$1000+ for OEM tips? I have mine (2013 Turbo, just like TheCayenneKid's) that I'd sell just to get them out of my garage...
They had the normal soot marks underneath them, so I cleaned them up, sanded down, and high heat painted them in satin black (looks great).
I actually have the whole turbo exhaust if anyone's interested... $120 shipped/$200+shipping. Sorry for the thread jack!
For everyone who has quad outlets could just slip these tips on.
For those who have only one exit pipe, you could just buy my whole exhaust and have the whole OEM Turbo exhaust, then just weld on for pretty dang cheap.
This pics nicely shows what is wrong with the chineese knock offs - the OE Porsche tips (pictured) are angled: the piping tilts down towards the mufler.
The chineese knock offs are flat, which makes the tips tilted up once installed.

The OEM pipe has a slight angle after the weld, then the outer polished tip is angled a bit more to give the illusion that the angle is greater than it really is. But every little bit helps!!

The new delivery came yesterday and put them on in about 10 minutes. Porsche makes working on the vehicles so easy. Definitely love the look, but that extra cash could have gone to upgrading to the rear lights to tinted lights!!! When you upgrade parts what do you do with the originals...recycle, ebay?

Nice, looks great! Fitment is spot on with OEM.

1) tail lights
2) front and rear luxor headrests
3) rear cargo mat/tray
4) luxor beige carpeted mats
5) Porsche Exclusive luxor/black mats (rare)
6) luxor leather shift **** (standard version with aluminum)
7) luxor leather shift **** with yachting mahogany wood (new in box)
8) Porsche Exclusive shift **** w/ umber leather (quite rare)
9) luxor beige all-weather rubber floormat set
10) carbon fiber dash trim piece that goes around the ignition key area

I've been selling off everything on ebay. Make the price right and everything will sell.
Instead of starting a new thread, I thought I would update this one. I posted earlier looking for OEM looking quad exhaust tips for my 958.2 base v6 and the one's I ordered finally came in! If anyone else is interested, the link is here (not affiliated at all). The one's I bought look EXACTLY like oem tips, with the thin rolled brushed stainless steel. They fit perfect, and look great.
