Default S2000 (S2K) AP2 vs GFX tips

Finally got around to installing the S2K AP2 tips on my ride today, with some help from some homies. The GFX tips were a B**** to remove!!! lol But finally got them off...wanted to post a comparison pic too, since I was searching for one before and couldn't find one, might help others who are thinking about getting them...shows just how much it improves the look of the rear!

Just need to fix that gap on either side of my rear lip now

S2K AP2 (Left) vs GFX tips (Right)



Both of them on:



Thinking about getting the M2 exhaust and welding these tips on next

Hahaha go ahead and do the welding, i'd like to see how it works out first before I try it myself anyways

I got them from eBay though, someone was parting an AP2 S2K.

How do you like your M2 Exhaust btw?!?

Love it, if you have the Fsport intake it will sound even better. I just did the Air box mod and it sounds great. No drone on the freeway but a nice growl at start up and when you step on it. Not nearly as nice of welds as my HKS I had on my is300 but it's not like you really see it. I'm completely happy with it!

Good to hear. Yeah i'll probably be ordering one, I don't want to chop up a Tanabe, might as well do it on a cheaper exhaust
