If you clean them at least twice a month, they will be fine.

That's where you lost me. ;) Too much of a commitment. Now if I could only apply that same level of laziness I have toward my exhaust tips to my laundry!
I also noticed the inner tips get blacker than the outer ones. I'm assuming it's due to the exhaust valve in the outer ones. |

Haha it takes dedication. I neglected mine for a month and it was caked on the tips. Took a while to get it out.

~4 months of road salt a year doesn't help

I never clean the exhaust tips. To me, they look great when they black out.

Picked up my S4 on Friday, noticed there was something burnt onto the exhaust tips - almost looked like a waterproofing sealant got onto the exhaust and solidified? Was imported from Japan so no idea. Had to use a chisel and paint stripper to get it off then a good ol polish if the tips 😆 to get them looking nice. |

Yes the real ones look better and the SQ5's aren't even close to convincingly real but for people who don't really care about their exhaust tips (most people not on here) are probably happier with the fakes. https://i.imgur.com/m3Nw5jH.jpg |
