Exhaust Tips
Anyone know the diameter of the OEM tips we have...and also how much bigger we could go if going after market...looking to swap out to some black tips. Any help appreciated!

Not sure about how big the stocks are, i would guess around 2.75- 3 inches. You should be able to fit 4 inch tips, thats what I have on mine and they fill out the bumper very nicely. Are you looking to change out the stock exhaust/muffles for something else? Cause I'm not sure how aftermarket tips would work on the stock mufflers, yes i know you can cut them off but im not sure if the pipes themselves coming out from the OEM muffler are spaced out enough to fit 4 inch tips

Not gonna lie that kinda looks like you bought it at Autozone... it's like a crooked Matryoshka doll of exhaust foolery. I am honestly not trying to be a jerk but yikes, sort these issues out my dude! You're driving a sixty thousand dollar car, not a used Honda

Thank you for your observation, these aren't ****ty "autozone special" tips lol. They're Akrapovics, They have that dual design since the outer layer is carbon fiber, and yes i do see i did put them on a bit crooked, gonna adjust them when i get back home. As far as the "gap difference" between the layers, it's the angle of the photo as well as the fact that the top layer cuts back as part of the design, that's why it looks uneven. I took a quick photo just to show the OP and R8Ready how 4 inch tips look and fit. It is a custom exhaust build i am doing and was trying out these tips to see how they would be. I appreciate your input 👍

Word, truly am just trying to be helpful. Akra is a good company and is well-liked within the sportbike track community. I know a couple Yamaha R1s with an akra header-back on and there isn't anything meaner sounding. I'll take your word that this is just a combo of on crooked + bad photo angles.
