Cannot buy just the tips. It seems very odd that it will just fall off. :thief:

3 Options. Upgrade. Check out the BM. Or try these guys....

It's still expensive but less than $330.

Maybe he should try to remove the inside tip from the passenger side so it matches. Not sure if it has any other real function.

You could always get aftermarket tips welded on instead. Should cost you probably half of what a new muffler would, and it could end up looking better than stock. You could also post a WTB (want to buy) thread in the black market for a used TLS muffler.

Strange. Go to a muffler shop. They usually have tips like that laying around or something similar to it at least.

I did receive a call from the guy at the dragway park, They did found my muffler tip there! So I don't need to worry about that now. I will weld the tip in place!
