Default Exhaust options for 2018 models?

Just picked up a new IS350 RWD (traded in my '15), and was looking to do an axle-back exhaust. Unfortunately it looks like all the existing options are for the 2016 and earlier models with the single round exhaust tip. Are there any production options out there for our revised exhaust exits? Hopefully I've just missed them.

The Apexi exhaust fits the 2017+, quad exit.

Please contact us for pricing!

You could also try one of the RC axle backs

Exactly what Rudiculous said - any RC axle back will fit the 17+ IS, so you have a lot of options

ANY RC axle back with quad tips should work with no need to change the diffuser - such as apexi, magnaflow, invidia, tanabe, etc. The 17+ IS shares the same factory axle back as the 15+ RC - so as I said earlier there are a lot of options already.
Using your apexi example, part # 164-KT13 for the RC is same # as for 17+ IS.

Has anyone modified the apexi quad exhaust to work with the existing 2017+ exhaust tips? or if they'd fit without removing the OEM exhaust tips which are already attached to the bumper?

Hey guys,
out of curiosity, has anyone got any pics of the Invidia RC quad with the stock 2017+ diffuser? I've only been able to find pics of the ark/apexi/dual invidia
