how do these attach onto the X02 exhaust. Aren't the tips held on via screws just like the HKS system? That would mean that you would have to have these welded onto your X02 exhaust, and they therefore would not be adjustable. Also, WTF is up with the holes? They are like the bad honda civic bumper hole cutout kits lol. They will definitely alter the sound of the exhaust as well. IMO purchasing the HKS exhaust is 1 the best, and if you want the HKS TI tips, buy the HKS tips, not some cheap ebay ones.

Sorry to sound negative, I just don't see this is a viable option for X02 owners.

Or you could just drill to holes in them...

The holes on the bottom are to attach them onto other exhaust tips. They serve a purpose and are not for looks. Hence they are on the bottom of the tips.

I think these are great. I'm going here first if and when I ever scrape my HKS tips. No way am I paying $200 for authentic HKS tips.

+1. xo2 tips are attached on the sides with 2 screws in case you did not know. to attach these, im guessing a hole on each side would be all thats needed to replace the xo2 tips. however, i think you would see the bottom holes when looking at the exhaust from the rear (and seeing inside the tip). i wonder how hard it would be to weld a piece of black metal on the inside to cover them up?

im planning to use propoxy 20, to fill the hole and maybe use it to bondin with the exhaust to replace all those drilling~~.....

Looks fantastic! Did you just drill holes in the sides and mount them like the original tips?
