DIY - Top Speed exhaust tip fix
For all you cry babies that bought the Top Speed exhaust that got the jagged edge tips.
Tools you'll need:
Die grinder with Sanding disk.
Fine grit sandpaper
Red scotch-brite
And lots of Patience
All I did was go round and round slowly on the edge with the sanding disk on my 90 degree die grinder and brought down the choppy edge. I then just took off the sharp edge with the fine sandpaper. I finished it off by swirling in circles inside the tip to give it that finished look.
Wala....

Yea that would be ideal I have a 90 degree angle grinder with the 2" sanding disks.Glad some of us could make it work without crying a river about it. Are you happy with the exhaust?

I'm still pissed off, the point of a group break is to get a discount, so a 449 exhaust for 385 shipped, not to get an exhaust missing $50-80 tips replaced with $15-20 tips. So the company made the same profit on 25 orders. It's bull****!

Let's be clear I don't think Bat6wc did anything wrong. Now Topspeed on the other hand pulled a bait and switch with the "original" exhaust. It took two weeks to get 25-40 people committing to an agreed "GROUP" "DISCOUNT". Instead we got a good for the money muffler-x-pipe but missing the tips pictured. *Idea*Send me tips like the originals and pay the swap cost. Or $500+ to make it right. Min 60 max 150 for tips plus cut and weld. Wow what a deal $50 more than they were listed 449 free shipping. It's the point not the $$

Looks like they cut down something like this and didn't grind the edge. So $40 Brand New Polished Stainless Angle Cut Exhaust Tip 2 1/2" IN 4" Out | eBay
