Hey all, now that spring is here going to get some exhaust tips for my new 2012 Q5. Should I just get the audi OEM ones or does anyone have any other recommendations?

I have the Audi exhaust tips and I love them. I bought some cheap ones from AutoZone and they ended up rusting over. I'd definitely recommend the Audi tips.

I bought the audi ones as well. My favorite tips are these though- I just don't know where you could find them.

@burdoogo, where did you buy yours? Did you get yours direct from Audi? I'm thinking of getting some new ones too.

Thanks

+1 on the Audi OEM tips.

I bought my OEM tips on Ebay and save some money vs going through your dealership.

I had the delear add the OEM tips on our 2012 Q5 prior to delivery this week. I didn't tell my wife that I added them in and didn't think that she would notice but she did and thought they just finished the look. I think they look great!

I just got them from my local Audi dealership. Definitely try looking online first and see if you get a better price.

I looked a while for alternatives but the OEM ones fit the best unless you go full aftermarket (which I ended up doing).

Now I have the OEM set available (used for maybe 1000 miles), if anyone wants them feel free to PM me.

We went in between the oem's and autozone
My local exhaust shop I've been using for years had them for the $30 range and they look fine (passed wife's inspection since it's her car!) and have held up well....
