So I went out ot my car this afternoon and noticed that someone had stolen my driver's side exhaust tip...I am fuming!!! It was there earlier and they had obviously went ahead and took it apart while my car was sitting in the parking lot. Now I have to find some new tips as the imbalance is visually driving me mad! Other than 3A racing tips, are there any other ones relatively close to OEM? Or would the cheapest ones be OEM?

Go to Autozone, Meijer's, Walmart or any big stores with an auto section. They usually have some cheap exhaust tips.

i dont think OEM tips cost much at all. i would post in the black market for a WTB OEM tips.

btw, how do you know it didnt fall off sometime?

that's pretty ghetto if someone really stole your tips. like many people said, get some 3A ones.

poohlikeshunny

well, I didn't SEE someone steal it, but I had it in our apartment parking lot and I was out there showing my buddy my tips because he had asked why are they so black at the bottom. So RIGHT before they disappeared I had inspected them and showed it to him and saw how tightly they were bolted on. I went inside and less than one hour later, I came out and the tip was gone, nut, bolt, tip and all. It was obvious someone didn't pull it straight off as there were no scratch marks, it was very cleanly removed...I suspect I know who took it too, but I don't want to point fingers unless I know...there's a ricer in the same lot of a 2nd gen accord and I have seen him and his friends standing around my car inspecting it (I happened to see them crowding my car while I was in the can and looked out the window....

But looks like 3A tips seem to be the general suggestion...I will go and take a look at some tips at a napa or target something today...I don't suppose anyone has pics of different tips? I have seen a few using the search function, but they seem to be one brand of tips and they all stick out from under the bumper...any other pics that I may have missed?

Get some 3A tips and have them Welded on. I did that with mines, just make sure you put them in the spot you want them in b4 you weld it on.

Damn, you should go to their car and spray their tips bright red, so they know what's up. Make sure it's your tip on their first though. I lived in a complex with a bunch of ricers and they all drove like assholes through it, even when ppl had their kids outside playing.

poohlikeshunny

yeah man...ricers doin their thing with kids and families around in a suburb after 10pm...almost every night.....that's kind of annoying. That's a pretty funny idea though..I wonder what they would think with a bright red tip the next morning!!

I wonder why families in the suburbs are playing with their kids in the street at 10pm?

ive been a victim of acura haters....jacked my tl-s badge, if i found out or saw who did it, i would jack up their cars......the whole nine yards, brake fluid all over their cars, keying up some sides, potatoes up in some tips.....overall madness.........

poohlikeshunny

seriously...all the tl haters in the area...hahaha...ksuchdeve, they don't play with their kids in the street, but the complex I am at does have families with kids who are sleeping at 10pm and their windows are right next to the parking lot (I know as I am one of those families with my kid's bedroom right next to the parking lot). 10pm with these ricers around revving their engines and blasting music right next to all these kids' bedrooms is really inconsiderate. Cops have been called and all they ever do is come around and tell them to keep it down...sucks..

3A tips FTW! $12, lol.
They would probably like it. It would be the new fad.

^Damn, beat me to it!^

3As are cheap and look nice too....time to upgrade you

poohlikeshunny

hahaha...well there may be someone offering me oem tips on this board...if they're fair I'll take him up on it but seems like 3A tips are FTW! Are they 12 a piece I assume? do they look similar to the OEM? Would I have to ge a pair or do they look pretty close to matching?

You'd have to get a pair. They are A LOT bigger. (Longer & wider) The OEM's are so puny. Once you go 3A, you never go back. <--Only forward... to a new exhaust...
I think I had mine for like 6 months, maybe? Always kept the clean and polished. Not a blemish on them when I took them off a few months ago to put on my Comptechs. Best $14 I spent on the car, lol. (I got them when they were on sale for $7 a piece! Yes, $7. And they looked just as nice as the $50 Borla tips. Thank you AcuraZine!)

Can't believe someone would steal a stock tip. Unless you keep them shinny all the time. Sorry for the lost

LeeDan00

YUP!

Ramojr

Is this the 3A that everyone is talking about he should get, or are the tips the #62-2419? I'm looking to get some of these bad boys myself..

poohlikeshunny

drcookie, thanx...but no, the tips were filthy at the bottom which I don't get...I guess they would just clean it up. I kinda like the look of the OEM tips, but I would like to do something new...I am intersted in TSX tips someone here has for sale..anyone have pics of them on a 2nd gen?

fsttyms1

Just get the 3A tips. they are a rolled tip design, and look much better than any of the oem tips.
