Doubtful. I think those are $125-175 w/o shipping. These might have real carbon from the looks of it.

These were supplied by the muffler shop, who stocks a wide variety of high-quality tips made with real CF. They do amazing work.

I have news lol


I don’t think you can trade for it because it was a shop exclusive. It came back in January this year but I haven’t noticed it back again. Probably gone forever

They look identical to AE tips, but you paid 4-5x more. My local shop said I can bring in the AE ones (real carbon fiber as well) and they'll install for $100 out the door. But I don't want cheap tips, j want good ones and a better system as well.

It's been noted on the forums a few times now that the AE ones are falling apart fairly quickly. I'd say if these last him a a year or two its a worthy investment.
