M-Performance Exhaust Alternative Tips

I'm looking at my car right now and I just can't stand the massive gap between my tips and my diffuser. Really want to find some tips that are 3.5" or maybe even slightly bigger that can easily just be slipped on and not welded.

I've been doing some research on and off for a couple of months already trying to find slightly bigger and better looking exhaust tips for the m-performance exhaust. I've seen some on BMS but unfortunately those do not fit the m-performance exhaust.

I've also heard of a forum member selling some exhaust tips that apparently do fit the m-performance exhaust and just easily slide on. Unfortunately I recieved the tips from him and those did not fit my exhaust either.

I've also seen the carbon fiber exhaust tips that do fit the m-performance exhaust but I'm wondering if anyone knows of any other easy slip on tips as an alternative? Thanks.

Do you have dual tips or single?

Which gloss black tips did you have?

The ones that came with my SportLine exhaust direct from factory.

OP you need to take your MPE to the dealer and have them fix the alignment. I bought my MPE after purchase because it wasn't available yet at purchase of my car. The performance shop installed it properly. See the pic

Maybe my tips are hanging a bit too low which is why the gap is soo big between them and the diffuser, but I highly doubt it. I just think the 3" MPE tips are too small and I'm trying to find 3.5" ones that easily slip on to replace them.

You'd be surprised at how many port installed accessories are not installed right.

Do what you want with the tips but I bet you anything the dealer can fix how low it hangs
