That's your best bet. Ebay is another option, and so is just getting some custom tips?

Do not spend $820 on OEM mufflers. Spend the extra and find yourself either an ATLP Quad, other mufflers, or XLR8 exhaust.

In your original post you said you could buy the OEM ones from the dealer for $820. XLR8 is NOT $990 MORE than $820.

Buy an aftermarket exhaust, or have an entire cat back custom made. No need to spend $500 on tips.

I'll go outside an cut mine off right now for $800... lol. I agree with other, but an aftermarket setup for this kind of money (although I still think the type S exhaust tips are the best option aesthetically)

I guess I'm a retard and the minority here but I've always loved how the base exhaust tips matched the shape of the opening and changing them has never even crossed my mind...

weird.

is this size ok? or, are they too small? Each tip is 3.5" in diameter. together, counting the small gap between them they are about 7 1/8"

PS. I have the type s rear under spoiler..
