Exhaust Tips Swap? Where to buy?

Damage Inc · 04-23-2022, 02:35 PM

Hi all. Have a Corsa on order, has chrome tips. Not a fan.

Where are you buying inexpensive exhaust tips? Lots on ebay, but would like to know where m3post owners are buying yours vs. learning the hard way myself

I have found a few threads here of members swapping tips on a Corsa. However there are no links to what they bought.

Can I buy any 3.5" tip? Or are there specific tips for the Corsa?

neilum those looks great! I was hoping for gloss black or black chrome. Any suggestions for a black chrome? I found this post with powder coated black.

Oh, and also - what steps did they do to change the tips? Did they simply cut off the old tips, and weld on the new ones? I know nothing about exhausts lol. thanks man

I think the key is the length, 10" total seems to be the sweet spot for fitment. Maybe search for 3.5" diameter and 10" total in length. Outside of that its just a piece of metal, should all be the same regardless of who makes it.

I had Autocouture guide and steer me in the right direction as I am also not an expert and had never done this prior, so sorry I can't help more.

Yes, they just cut the old tips off and welded these on.

Those tips look awesome. Have been thinking about changing out the tips on my corsa, but haven't been sure which ones to use.
