Default Exhaust tips on the '11 vs '10
I read on Sewell's site that the '11s have a rounder exhaust tips.
Are the tips thicker walled or the same thinness of the previous IS's?

They are different, seem larger, and chrome. I could be wrong, but it seems like they started putting the 350 tips on the 250.

I thought 350 and 250 shared the same exhaust tips?

Thanks!

I just ordered a set from Sewell.
I would think the '11 250 and 350 share the same tips.

IS250 and 350 share the same tips. 2011 changed for both models.

oops, links fixed.

the 2011 250 and 2010 350 both look round to me. I have the 2010 250 so i know exactly what you mean by the older tips being thin. I just can't tell the difference between the two "rounder" tips other the part where you attach it to the exhaust looks a little different.

Definitely thicker and rounder,
The Sewell description says ...


Installation requires no cutting, drilling or welding.

* Original Equipment Lexus
* Stylish upgrade

Should go on like the tips of the non '11's.
