FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!! New tips are in after long backorder!
Ok, so after 4 longgggggggg weeks my new tips are in. Came home at 11:00 tonight and found the sitting in the living room, opened them up and snapped some pics. If I feel liek it I might take a pic of them in the sun to see how "black" they are. So far I'm happy! Great quality, we'll see how they last.
O yea, no pics of them on the car until my project is done, hopefully sometime in june

For me, living in Alaska, shipping kills me. It is cheaper to buy nice tips and Flows and have them welded in than buy a catback. $200 for the mufflers, $150 for the tips, $80 for the welding=$430. SLP LMII Catback=$450 from MT plus about $80 shipping. Simply economics.

Well took some pics of them in the daylight. Yea, I'm very pleased so far. They really keep the black look, I was kinda afraid they would just look chrome like "Foncarelli's???" did, I think i spelleed that right.
Well time to put them on!

Alright I lied I had to show them.
I had to fabricate the hangars they gave me, they hung the tips to high and rubbed the top of the Saleen cut outs in the bumper.
I tired bending with pliers at first, nope, hangars are verryyyy strong. So heated them up with a blow torch, bent, and let cool. Worked well.
I have them sitting back in the cut outs a little too. From the side angle they are in line with the curvature of the bumper. My old ones stuck out a little over an inch. Very pleased so far. I turned the car on to drive it off the ramp, and too my amazement my exhaust tone slightly changed at idle. It sounds a little "deeper" I think, actually my GF was the one who said "deeper" but it did change. Maybe that 1/2" less diameter, or the tips being slightly sunk in the cut outs caused this, who knows. Anyways, enjoy the teasers.... Next time I post pics my entire kit will be re painted, and a lot of little things will be added
