2012 TL SH quad OEM exhaust tips

Hello guys. Anybody know where I could find a set of quad exhaust tips that come on the 12' TL SH like the ones on the image below?

That's a pic of an 09-11 TL SH-AWD. Only the 09-11 TL SH-AWD models came with those tips, all 12-13 TL models came with the single rectangular tips. You can get a shop to swap the tips but it requires welding and I'm not sure exactly how well they would fit since the rear bumpers of the 09-11 and 12-13 models are different.

Sorry for getting the MY wrong. But I want to fit the tips on (you'll laugh at this) my Mercedes. I'm not worried about getting them on, my local muffler shop can fit that on there. I just can't find a set. I have looked everywhere. Mercedes has something similar but not quiet like this and I really like this.

Here is what my C class looks like now:

tasho3...Quite frankly, I prefer the dual pipes on the Mercedes than the quad tip on the TL. That was one thing I was happy with the MMC and the wider single exhaust tip, although 95% of the people would disagree with me

To me I love the quad pipes and it seems to be an omission on the newer models.

As is the removal of chrome door handles, Acura is penny pinching in visible areas, not good. I love the chore halides on the girl friends graphite luster TSX.

the sh needs to have visual differences from the no sh models...exhaust tips and wheels should be different for sure...

i think they should have stuck with the exhaust tips on the previous type s, thoes were cool

Yup. Acura needs to get over the cost cutting, wrong way to revive the brand. You need to be smart, it is the simple things that make the difference, I agree, the exhaust tips, the door handles some better front fascia and rear end details to show the different, every brand does it, Acura used to and now they are too worried about saving a few bucks. I went with the M37 Sport for various reasons, half were the looks (different front end, wheels tires, 4WS, sport seats, contrast stitching, blacked out grill and headlights, etc) of the Sport the rest were the ride and suspension tweaks.
