Custom Exhaust Tips

Zymurgy · 07-17-2014, 11:28 AM

Any recommendations for a fabrication shop...... That is intimately familiar with the C7...... To have a set of exhaust tips made for my vehicle?

I'm looking for a shop doesn't need to be local...... But knows the C7...... So they won't require my car.

I can't believe this is so hard to locate anyone!

Thanks!

Isn't there a vendor that makes something similar? Maybe not exactly but close, maybe even corsa has that tip if my memory serves me correctly.

Yes..... You're right....
"Billy Boat" has something similar...... And the ones I pictured
are from "Redline Motorsports" in Florida.

I contacted BOTH....... And they're acting like they designed some
"One-Off" diamond engagement ring or something!!!! I told them....
With the exhaust opening in that rear valance.....if you wanted "dual tips"
like I do.... There are only a small number of "shapes".....

So ..... Why were they acting like they were something special????

However..... They both told me to forgettaboutit!!!!! And kicked me to
The curb!!

Those tips are B & B Performance (Billy Boat exhaust) parts, their Speedway tips. They appear to be cast aluminum and polished. I did not see where someone could order them separate from the axle-back exhaust kits, but I might have missed it on their website.

To install just new tips, the factory tips on non-NPP cars will need to be cut off, as they are welded to the mufflers. There is also just one outlet from the mufflers on non-NPP cars. NPP-equipped cars have 2 outlets per muffler. I'm not sure if they are welded on or not, as I don't have NPP on my car.

No..... The tips that I posted on the Blue Stingray..... Are NOT the "Speedway Tips" from the Billy Boat Exhaust. On Billy Boats..... Are not the same shape.

These Tips..... Are from the "Adrenaline Package" of Redline Motorsport's Custom Stingray.

Great news today!!! After contacting over 25 custom shops across the U.S., I finally located a racing/ fabrication shop only 15 miles from my home in Irvine, CA....... I drove the car over, pictures & measurements were taken.

So......... I'm on my way!!!!!

They will be the same exact tips on the picture above! 1/2 inch thick so will be big & bulky....... Polished stainless steel!!!

Will keep every posted......

sweet looking exhaust tips.

GeoC · 07-23-2014, 07:27 AM

You actually think this is an improvement.
Think the stock tips look better, but that
is just me. Looks like you want to copy the
tail lights. Stock looks like the exhaust from
a jet. Not these.

Borla has a similar looking tip listed on their website. Corsa did too early in the year, but not now. All appear to be cast and likely will only fit that particular brand's exhaust. Custom fabrication is probably the best way to go for similar style on stock exhaust.

I personally prefer 4 tips over 2. I wonder if anyone will come out with 4 individual angular tips instead of 2 angular or 4 round? Could look sharp if done right.
