Default You can find those tips at most "performance" muffler shops. If they are stainless, they will still

turn, So you may want to try a Chrome setup. Just make sure its a quality job. Personally, I'd still go with Stainless

Does that mean that BMW M5 tips turn gold? They are similar to these - single pipe wall

Default Cut your inner tips out.... and they will discolor over time(get really hot)

at least with my lead foot... but it polishes out easily with Mothers or other metal polish.

I used a dremmel and the tips don't look too bad(see my pic poster - think there is a shot there).

Default Can you polish them back to bright polished stainless color? - - - >

I am about to have my Borla exhaust modified.

We're going to remove the center pipe, and straight cut the outer stainless pipes, one about half inch shorter then the other ala' E36 M3.

If the turn from the heat can I polish them back to bright color?
