Crazy EXPENSIVE exhaust.. Insurance claim help!
I'm currently negotiating with an insurance adjuster regarding damage to my aftermarket exhaust. I purchased the vehicle pre-owned with the exhaust already installed, however I don't have any receipts for the exhaust itself.
The adjuster concedes that it is what I claim it to be: Amuse Titan R1... but is unsure if it is the "Extra" version that is on the car.
What I'm trying to find out: How do I know what type I actually have?? Maybe link to a site that I can give to my insurance adjuster?

they have to fix the car to the condition that the car was in before the damage. Tell him you want the same exhaust, he can find the best price he can get for it. You can also get a pay out for the customer property damage. I had my carbon fiber TS hood damaged, and geico gave me $986 for it even thought I didnt have a receipt. I just had them find the best price they could for it online, plus paint and install.
Have them find their own best price, plus shipping and install and have them cut you a check for it. Then buy an HKS or something you want after that if you cant have it repaired.
If you play your cards right, know what your entitled to, and act smart you come out on top with insurance.

The above link is what I submitted as a quote for coverage. It seems that their labeling the EXTRA series as having full blue tips, and a gold ring. I'm having a hard time uploading pics, but mine looks just like this with the "A" tips.
Anyone have experience with this system? Can you find me a link showing the cost of the one with the "a" style tips and no gold ring?

I'm having hard time uploading the photos i've been taking... saying that there is a size limit.
The appriasal person isn't unsure of whether its an Amuse. They're just not sure if its the Amuse Titan R1 Extra or "non extra". Apparently the difference is about $1100, and i'm not sure what the difference actually is (it can't seriously be just an all blue tip with a gold ring)
Does anyone know the what constitutes the difference between the two exhausts?

Most good collision centers have a relationship with an exhaust shop. Find out who yours deals with and call them. They can probably help. If you figure out which exhaust you have the insurance should take care of it. A buddy of mine just got a brand new Borla set up after getting rear ended this way.

- Straight design means improved exhaust flow over standard
- Full titanium construction weighing in most cases more than 1/2 standard
Muffler Bodies available
- A Body – Blue Burnt Ends
- B Body – Completely Burnt Blue
- C Body – No Finish
Tip Finishes available:
- A Tail – Blue Burnt Finisher Tip
- B Tail – Blue Burnt Complete Finisher
