…EXHAUST TIPS! These cars should have come with shiny dual tips from the factory. I can’t begin to say how much better these look than the OEM tips…and I even kinda liked the OEM tips. Probably the best $100 I’ve spent in a while. Easily adds 25 virtual horsepower in addition to quantifiable bad-assness.
Doin' the happy dance...
Did I mention I got these for my wife for our anniversary? Uh huh, that's right.

Silverline, Matt. The only complaint I have (and it's minor) is that they ink their logo on them. I buffed that off as best I could, but the logo is somewhat etched on. You have to look kinda hard to see it, but rolling down the road nobody ever will.
They were about $48 each, and there is a left and right side. Pictures don't do them justice.

Looks great Stan!!! I can't wait to get something that did have them from the factory.
Bye Bye: RIP sandrock

I know, right? I kept looking at GXP's 'n stuff and thinkin' they just looked like they belong there. The ones I got are virtually identical to what you'll have on the new Edmobile.

Tips just make all the difference in the world on these cars!

By "these" I mean like the one in the picture. If it has dual exhaust, it shoulda came with twin tips like this.
On a side note, there was a G8 GXP for sale locally recently. I wanted it bad but, because I'm paying for a wedding in a couple weeks, I bought these instead. Just like having a GXP though...

Best looking tips I can ever remember seeing! I think the horse-power and quantifiable bad-assness assessment is an under-statement. - BC
