Forester XT/Legacy GT exhaust tips on the twins stock muffler (easy/cheap option)
So like many others I'm peeved we got jipped on the exhaust tips here in the states... I ordered some cheap replacements but in the meantime I had a forester XT in the next garage so I snagged the tip off of it and here are the results:

Other model Subaru exhaust tips might work as well. |
A slight improvement. And accomplished with a Polish speed wrench!

Sweet! Time to gank some tips from Suzy soccer moms forester.

So I went down to the recycler and they didn't have any Forester XT's but they had plenty of Legacy GT's with exhaust tips that are more Oval and less Round but also bolt up the same way and use the same 10mm bolt :D

MUCH better looking IMO than the aftermarket generic ones. I'm still not sure whether I like the Forester or Legacy ones better... Working on getting the part numbers now. |
Nice find. I am digging the legacy tips.

Forgot to post the better photos of the Legacy GT tips I took...

nice find
