…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.

Looks good Stan. Been looking at some different tips myself. What brand are those?

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.

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.

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...

See, I'm the opposite, I think qaud tips looks too "busy". I prefer 2 big guns...

Yeah, I like those too. But the bumper cover cutouts for your exhaust are curved, whereas mine are more of a box...the dual tips fit in there nicely.
Y'know, if you got a couple coffee cans...

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

I think the SLE/SSEi trims would have looked much better with dual duals. The slot for them is practically made for it.

Nah, that's a little
too ricer. Go with something Italian.
