Default Quad Exhaust tips LS460?

found these while browsing Skipper's site





What do you all think

i think it would look better with the outer piece flat black and just hte 2 tips inside each piece chromed out, more M5-esque


price is STEEP at ¥102,900/pair (~$885.97 USD)

why not just DIY? cut 4 pieces of metal and stick in there. buy some baffling material if you want haha, but not worth the $$$ for 4 pieces of pipe that look like "tips" haha

I think it spoils the look of the stock exhaust.

That doesn't look good at all Still, I think it's a little better than the exhaust setup of the IS-F IMO . . .

Looks like these hook up directly to the muffler's pipes, as opposed to the current setup.

not going to lie, i dislike the IS-F's stacked exhausts.

the reason you don't see those on cars today is because they don't look good, haha, i don't know why Lexus thinks they can pull it off. i think that dual exhausts, even dual-dual look better than stacked..much more aggressive..

Looks overkill. It's like adding a spoiler on top of another spoiler

Regular quad setup will look sooo much better.
