well. i just applied ceramabryte to the stock exhaust tips and wasn't too impressed. i used their application pad. what a POS. anyway, after one week of ownership those stock tips have to go man. any recommendations? I want to eventually get the full bassani system but can i just get the tips for the system and get the rest later when I have more $$$?

also, i looked under the truck around the exhaust tip exit area and noticed two ubolt clamps. will the stock exhaust tips come off if i loosen those bolts or are they welded? i know this has been covered before but search is down and down and down.

thanks.

 

stock tips can be maintained, but they're a royal pain in the %@$, and I'm unusually obsessive about the appearance of my vehicles. Some guys have swapped the Harley tips onth the L's, but if you're going with the Bassani setup then your problems will be solved.
The two u-bolts were all that held my tips on. I was able to loosen them, remove the tips, and head to a polishing wheel. Bottom line - the coating stinks on these pipes. I checked with JetHot about recoating mine, and I may give that a whirl (when I feel I can do without the truck for a couple weeks). Won't be anytime soon!

what are the best tips for the $$$$? BABolts tips run $300 i think and i'm not sure he's still selling those.

 

Save a little money and get the best Dude $300 just for tips

 

Chikenears help me out. what is the difference between the full catback system that sells around $1500 and the one that sells around $650. And don't say $850.

also, those bassani tips are what I'm looking for. are they part of an entire system or did you just install the bassani tips. how much and where? thanks.

check these out they run $25-$50 and are what i have very high quality

 

picture of those tips on your truck?

 

Here is a pic of the catback system. The "full system" includes shorty headers and catalytic converters. The factory headers and cats are all you need. The catback is perfect for a daily driver.

Hope this helps.

 

I should have said that the X pipe IS included in the catback system. Sorry.

 

can i install it myself or is it a pain?

lastly, best deal around on this?

many thanks chiken. gooble gooble.:o

 

these things look like **** right now ill clean the and post again

 

tiny elvis says " take a look at that picture. whoa baby, it's huge!"

 

sorry about the size i had a hard enough time trying to get it small enough to post,anyway this is after a few minutes with some neverdull,also keep in mind that these tips have 6k miles on them and are in need of more then just a few minutes with some neverdull!!

 

that's a nice pair of tips.
