That clonking was driving me nuts,
I finally cut the Clamp holders off the two Exhuast Tips
and swung the clamps 180 Degrees so they now clear the bars

Before (the day I installed them)


Hard to tell from the pic, but man oh man did they scrap the
schitt out of the bars, and a real deep scrape at that

 

Way to go Rob.





...now you going to spend the rest of the night picking out the sharp rocks from your back?

 

At least now there will be no more sidways rubbing,

I still may have to adjust the Exhuast Tip Clamp a little higher
to give me more clearance

I'd swear I heard it clunk again AFTER I FIXED IT (@#$(@#$(@$#(@$%@$%!*(!*#

BTW
Who says I aint running pig rich

hehehehehehe

 

Hey Rob.........

That reminds me.........Thanks for the original post on this issue. I installed JLP traction bars about three weeks ago and had the same clearance issues with the stock exhaust. BUT, thanks to your original post.....I remembered the "cut/spin the clamp MOD" that you found. Worked like a charm. Oh yea don't feel bad I do all my modding in the gravel driveway too.......Hopefully not for long planning on the two car garage in the next couple of months.....Talk to ya later......Thanks again.

Later,
Chris

 

Those are the ugliest looking tips I have ever seen.

Clean those mothers

 

Have you seen the Flowmasters??

They are horrible....right up there with the Borla.

Stock is a step up on both IMHO.

 

I think Rob is the only guy on here who still has stock exhuast.

 

Alot of guys have stock tips, but they clean them!
He's to busy cleaning that black paint to have any time to clean the tips

 

Can I take Sand Paper to it (You know super fine Wet) ???
Brillo ? Acid ? LSD hehehehehe
I'm bout ready to paint them Black
and say the hell with it forever
But man they are funky looking aren't they
Ok I'll try something on it ???
Hmmmmmmm wonder what we have at work..............
Emery Cloth, Grit Cloth, Scotch Brite Bads, Steel Wool,
you know you guys can jump in at any time and say
YES that will work ?

 

Just get some mother mag wheel polish. The will look great with a little work and few of these

BTW; I took on of the clamps completely off when I had stock exhaust to keep it from hitting. I never lost my stock tips.

 

The goes without saying
Good idea on removing the clamps, I don't see them
coming off either without them

Mothers will take forever on that, I better stock up on the

 

I used the red scotch brite pads on my tips. It took off the black, but if you rub to hard (he he i said hard) it will take off the clear coating. At least it looked like their was a clear coating. Anyway, they came out pretty good, but not a s nice as chrome tips.

 

YES, YES, YES

 

I will agree with the flowmaster tips but I love the look of the Borla Phantom tips.

 

I dunno, they look like a cup got stuck in another cup....I don't like the two pipe design....Bassani is the ONLY way to go
