Default FS: Borla (v1) exhausts $275

Hi guys,

I have a set of the older style Borlas for sale. These are the ones with the squarish tips with rounded corners. I bought them for a project and ended up not needing them. I bought this used so it is not in spit shine quality. There are some scuffing on the tips. I don't know what new ones come with but these will be just the exhaust components. What you see in the pics is what you are getting. Pics of the parts are in this post. The close up of the tips are in post #12.

They are nice exhausts with just enough sound to enhance the stock system. They are one of the more quiet exhaust when not at WOT for those who wants a more refined sound.

As always, preference will go to local buyers to minimize dealing with shipping. I will be at this weekend's SoCal meet so I can bring them if there is anyone interested.

Let me know.

Thanks. My car has been under the knife for the last 3.5 years. Unfortunately, it was not meant to be so it is undergoing revision-to-stock surgery.

Anyways, I added the pics.

Not sure what you mean by clear the stock bumper. I'll post a pic of the exhaust (on another car as I do not have any pics installed). The Borlas are made to fit the OEM bumper. For comparison, ones like the RMM and L-Sportline were made to fit their respective bumpers and will protrude on the OEM bumper.

It is currently raining now but I'll try to go to my storage and get pics.

Just a note: The scuffs were there when I bought it. I wanted the cans since I was going to cut off the tips for new ones.

Here are the pics of the tips:

Driver Top


Driver Bottom (scuff)


Driver Bottom Close Up


Passenger Top


Passenger Bottom


Scuff is at the bottom. It is not really visible unless you know it's there and poke your head down to find it. The rest of the tip probably just needs a good cleaning/polishing.

It's Monday morning.

I have a pending sale. Tentative meeting with the buyer this weekend. I am still accepting backup offers (to add to the ones I already have) just in case.

BTW - I dug through my boxes of car parts and found the mounting brackets and rubber hangers.
