well, I lost my factory tip on one side, called Lexus and they want $90 for one tip. So I figured I'd give these F-Sport tips a try.. They were only $40 each.. Plus even if I did replace with factory tip, I would have to buy two anyways to match.

I'll post pics after I install them tomorrow

Okay ........... now i'm so undecided i was set on the A2P tips and now had seen the Magnaflows which don't seem to stick out as much and is about half the price of the A2P's ! Does anyone have the right part number or is #35177 fine for us to use ?? TIA

If you want to do the 35177s, I was told that they have to be welded on (after cutting some of the existing stock pipe). Also, I have a brand new set of 35177s in my garage and you can have them for $75 - shipped to your door, if you want to take that route. They look dang good, but I'm not able to weld myself, and didn't want to go through the trouble of getting it done.

Will the 35177's fit? Our pipes are 2.5" but those are 2.25"?

Those Magna Flows looks good and i was honestly going to go that route but as you can see no one answered my inquiry last Sept about the actual size so i went with AP2's instead which IMHO looks better ( cause it fills the holes in an agressive way ) ?? Here's a quick comparison of the Magna Flows on top and AP2s on the bottom ...... either way you cant go wrong with this mod since both are much , much better than the OEM tips !

AP2 looks nice too, but i prefer round shape over the oval shape
