Looks awesome! Can't wait to get mine this week. I'll be stuck with stock lip for now though.

Btw if anyone is installing them, you may find that they just slide right on.... but use a screw thru the hole in the bottom to secure them!!! One of mine was coming loose after not too long. Better safe than sorry!

Since those tips fill the gap so tightly, has anyone run into any issues with the tips hitting / rubbing their GFX as the exhaust "flexes" on the hangers while driving?

Don't wanna damage the paint or tips

WOW are cars are exactly the same in the rear. I thought i was looking at a pic of my own car for a minute

They look like S2K AP2 tips bro, but you need to hammer them in with a rubber mallet they are sticking out way too much right now!

Check on eBay, S2K forums or else buy new at your local Honda dealership or an online reseller. Usually there's some good deals on eBay, but lately there's been a lot less of them for sale on eBay.

I have it without gfx. It looks awesome. I had the tailpipes cut by 2" so the ap2 don't stick out too much. Let me see if I can find pics.
