Beware. Some men may respond: "OK. In your place or mine ?"

I'm glad I didn't waste money on the wrap. It's actually more expensive than paint. The spoiler was installed as is yesterday but will be removed sooner than later and refitted or replaced.

Thank you @mike@x-ph.com for the product and quick delivery!

You DIY? Any photos of the process??

This might be a stupid question but do they come in pairs from Autoid or do I need to buy two? I assume they don't come as a pair and I need to purchase two.

Sorry, no pics or diy on this one. My local mechanic took care of the install. It took him about an hour. It would probably take me 6 hours on my back.

Poor man's exhaust mod to pair with my Fabspeed Sportcat: brushed aluminum exhaust tips from Cyba.

Took some photos that I didn't like at all but people on Instagram seems to disagree so I'll post one here too.

That looks awesome!

Makes me feel guilty for trying to sell my Cyba brushed set, decided to go for carbon tips to match an upcoming diffuser I plan to install.

I like those! And they appear to screw on instead of a slip fit? Easy to install? How much?

Looks like MerlinPurple above is selling a used set!

:

The Cyba double walled exhaust tips are slipped on and then tightened down with 3 bolts. You'll need an Allen key to turn the bolts.

The hardest part was removing the stock exhaust trips. I used a combination of WD40, rubber mallet, hammer and piece of wood to "bang" out the tips. The piece of wood was to spread the load so I wouldn't damage the stock tips from the hammer strikes.

Picked it up

Noticed that too on Instagram. Shots I don't like tend to get more likes than shots I like.

No need for all of that, just grab the tips and twist from right to left and pull at the same time. Make sure you grab the front of the tip, if you grab the rear you will put pressure on the metal clips and will be harder to get off. Took me 10 min to get all 4 off with my bare hands.

Got my PE last Wednesday. Switched visors to euro visors, (no warning labels), installed aspheric euro rear view mirrors, M look cf mirror covers, M performance cf diffuser and finally installed my rear reflector delete slatted inserts. Waiting on euro rear turn signals which are on the way

A rubber strap wrench is the right tool to use.
