Hey Rockstar - stalker mode engaged but I love your exhaust tips used in this shot...


Are they off a MDX or something?

Yea scouring his 322 page build thread (JESUS MAN) I found this post.

A quick eBay search yielded me a few results but nothing that I'm certain matches.

Any insight is helpful, here's what I found:

GIBSON 500366 Universal Stainless Steel Square Exhaust Tip 2.5" IN/6 X 2.75" OUT | eBay

Exhaust Tips *NEW* Polished Stainless Steel - Inlet 2.25" Custom Slant Rectangle | eBay

if i remember correctly, the seller ONLY had 3 or 4 of these. Once rockstar advertised them, they got scooped up...or the seller decided to keep the last bit and never sell them

Well, I guess quad tip life it is for me. Sad, I really preferred these on the Aspec base rear lip as opposed to quads after I saw them; oh well.

Yeah, local exhaust shop sourced them...when i tried to find out where he wouldn't share, even when I told him to mark up if he wanted and ship to forum guys...he wasn't interested in the business though.
At one point I think I got Richie a set of Chinese ones and he was gonna figure out a way to duplicate, but I think the market dried up and R&D would have been a lost expense.

I don't imply..
I'm looking at SUVs.. probably

I'm willing to wait for Durango SRT and RAM TRX.. but already know what they're going to sell for..
Better deals to be had for slightly used..

But if TRX is really 55 or SRT is low 60s..
Hot damn..

I know you probably can afford it...

thinking mid 80's caravan paid in cash...maybe LS swapped.

When you say Explorer EB... Is the "EB" for "Eddie Bauer"?

Or is it something that means something like "Extra Blower" or something?

Well, I have nothing useful.

You should get an Eddie Bauer edition though. It's got logo embroidered seats.

I'd wait for the new TLX Type-R. It's going to have a Twin Turbo V6 with like 500 HP, RWD, and a 6MT. Jon Ikea told me.
