Does any other auto parts store carry these?

This is a really stupid mod and everyone who has black tips needs to get rid of them ASAP.


To help you along, I'll send you $10 to pay for the shipping of one of them to my house.

My pepboys only had 1 :( :lol:

Not really sure. I had tried a couple of others (Advanced Auto, O'Reilly, some other national chains) and didn't see these. Amazon has the chrome EX-1011 ones and some others but didn't see the black ones.

There's a list of dealers on the DC Sports site but not sure that they would carry these.

Good idea! I just placed an order for one...it says my estimated pick up date is 06/25.... :bonk:

I'm just hoping whenever I go to zip boys to pick it up they don't look at me like I'm an alien when I say I placed the order online.


"Yeah sir since you placed ya'll order online you gun' have to go home and wait for the Mr. UPS man and he'll bring you yurr stuff good-n-quick!"**

**No offense to people who work at pep boys. My town is just full of interesting personalities.

Lol my point exactly. I picked up the only one they had in stock. Figured waiting till they had two would be pointless.


Plus I think Dadhawk is starting to realize these exhaust tips are very tacky, he practically has one on its way to my house now ;)

I'm trying to determine where to place the new black tips. The stock ones are set well back behind the black plastic. I see some here in this post that are extended beyond the black plastic and other in the nearly stock position. Decisions, decisions.

i think it looks cool if you place them out just a hair... play around with it.

my advice, dont tighten them up until u decide - i did a few dozen times and it messed up the cheap screws.. so on one of mine i am tight on only 2 of the 3 -- just something to remember as u sit there and stare at it for hrs/days....
