I'm trying to remove the original exhaust tips to replace it with GFX exhaust tips. But I cannot find a way to get the original ones off. My car is an 08 and the tip isn't in the best condition. Is there a easier way to get the tip off?

 

hammer it from the back, hit around the edge.... takes a lot of wacks!

 

Use a mallet.

 

thats what she said, sorry i had to do it

 

^lol


just put on gloves. make sure the tips aren't hot. just twist left and right until it comes off.

 

hahahahaha

OP, just twist them off. If its too tight, spray little bit of wd40.

 

thats what she said too...what a freak

 

dont just spray a little, soak it in wd40. And then add in some liquid wretch. And then use a mallet to the back of the tips.

Yea, it takes quite a bit of effort to remove those tips.

 

Like everyone said. It takes a little effort to take them off.

Make sure the exhaust isn't hot...I got blisters working on one hot. And wear gloves. Wiggle it from side to side and pull. Just keep on wiggling it back and forth. You need to loosen it and then it starts to move. It took me about 5 minutes to get one to start moving, but this one was a really tight fit.

Good luck.

 

Spray the crap out of them with WD40 and then twist and pull to get them off (or have your most buff friend do it for you)

It's a lot of work to get those damn tips off

 

^^^ Agree, they are on there tight.

I nearly smacked myself in the face with the tips once they came loose. Don't sit eye level and do it.

 

^ hahah i LOL'd cuz that almost happened to me when I tried to pull them off. I didn't even get them off, I just lost grip and flew backwards

 

^^^ LOL! That ****** is funny! Whoever has removed the tips can relate since they are on tight. But when they come off, they break loose.

 

Hmm doesn't sound to bad. I am going to try this very soon.

 

Thanks for all the replies i'll try it today again. hopefully it works
