Exhaust Tips

Hey Guys,

So I decided I'm going to go with the Exhaust Tips (just the tips) instead of the whole muffler change. After I get my C63 Rear Diffuser I will chose one of these 3 tips. Which do you think is best, mine is the last one because they seem abit angled and more higher quality. (They are a bit more $$ tho)

p.s. Only thing I worry about is that the tips are too far apart from each other. What do you think?

Regards,

Daniel

Yea, mainly because of the sound. If it's too loud or obnoxious then it would be a waste of money to change back to stock. Also because of warranty issues for the car. If I ever have an exhaust problem in the near future the MB dealership might use the excuse that I have installed diff mufflers. :p But don't get me wrong, if I knew the magnaflow's would sound good and not too loud, and the installation wouldn't affect the warranty, I would prob go ahead with it.

Still thinking of doing magnaflow's? If you did go through with them and they sounded good, I would do it no doubt about it, haha but your probably having the same worries as me lol.

I'm thinking that the appearance of the exhaust will be making a promise that the engine can't deliver.

When I was going to get the Remus exhaust, I called the dealership's warranty administrator. She said it would not imapct the warranty unless it caused a CEL or interfered with the emission system; which it would not. Even then, she said they would work with me.

Yea I feel your pain haha. Its a big decision though cause you wanna order the right tips, order the wrong ones and it'll look like crap. Btw do oyu think there is a part number for the OEM C63 tips? Just for the tips?
