I need new tips!

Some idiot shipped me a 350z exhaust, I got an extention to make it fit. But my tips are to short.

As well as the look like crap, and the idiot shipped them with no cushing so the tip is bent.

I can buy just tips right? any suggestions that look pretty swee that will fit a stillen true duel? Links or names to PM would be appreciated =)

Hate when crap like that happens.....
You call that idiot to see if they will ship the correct one for a G and not a Z and report about the damaged tip in shipping? All this not your fault, sounds like.
I'd try to go that route first before going to all the trouble and $$ to retrofit.

I have pretty limited extra time. And it was a privet seller on a used system.. The stillens tips look like trash anyway.

This was awhile ago anyway... w/e I'll just deal with it like this.

My tuner says he's going to do it.

Apparently Roger at japtrix can "[I] can do anything!"

And for a damn good price.
