Default Recommendation for Exhaust Fabricator

Posted this in the regional forum, but that place is a ghost town.

I'm looking for an exhaust fabricator, preferably (but not necessarily) on the west coast, who can make a set of custom exhaust tips for the GT4. Not looking for anything fancy. Just want to mimic the look of the Sharkwerks RS Light Weight tips for the 991 GT3 in satin black, but want the outside diameter in 94mm and, obviously, fitment specific to the GT4.

Any leads would be appreciated.

I asked them a while back, and they said they had no plans to make anything for the GT4.

Did you specifically ask if they'd be willing to do custom work? That's not the same as offering an official product. Otherwise, Fabspeed has made posts here indicating they're open to custom projects, but they're in PA.

I actually shot them a request over the weekend asking them the same, but wanted to cast a wide net. Would be pleasantly surprised if they said yes...

I would give Sector111 (a Lotus / Alfa tuner) a call. They seem to have a good (possibly local to SoCal) fabricator they use for those cars and the Drakan Spyder:

Something like this - which worked great at Laguna Seca this weekend - though I think the vendor was AutoZone
