you people gave me so much shit for wanting to get tips (rather than getting an entire catback) yet you praise this

If I would get tips they definitely would be thicker, like on the old TL type S.

ok heres why its blue: Dont know if Dude meant for them to get blue. but those are so thin, (whatever he put on there) that from the hot air, the tips just get so hot that they turned blue, thats what metal does.

I hope you wanted that look. IMO I wouldnt

Just buy some super thin tips and you can have them too. WHen you drive your exhaust will push out enough hot air to burn those too

No it wont. The metel is heat treated to look like that. It doesnt matter it they look "thin" in pictures, they can be thick, you have never seen them in real life.

Ok I am right and so are you. Obviously you can heat treat the metal to look like that and YES the metal can also turn that way because of what I said.
Thank you very much

Yes its unique because nobody else has that so far but the thought of how easily it "can" be done is what gets me when everyone is so excited.

2. For rims, I'm running on Works Emotion CR KAI 18"
3. For drop, i'm using Espelir lowering springs
4. Back sensors, it came original from Honda when I got the car

The exhaust cant make enough heat to do that to metel. Titanium needs a lot of heat to make it change colors.
