Default Akrapovic Carbon Exhaust Tips for c6z06- $800

I have a set of four NEW Akrapovic carbon exhaust tips. They are 4.5" (115mm) outlet and 2.5" (63.5mm) inlet. These are the new styled tips. They will fit the c6z06 Akrapovic exhaust and many other exhaust systems. If you have been looking for these, you know they are not easy to find.

I also have a NEW Akrapovic stainless steel slip on system for a c6z06 for sale. $2,000 with the tips as shown in picture.

when did Akrapovic change their design? the exhaust I ordered three weeks ago had the previous design, these look just like the fake kind you see on ebay. GLWS

Can you post a closer pic of the carbon? It looks off in that picture. Also of the clamps in the back? Any pics of the exhaust? These are legitimate Akrapovic items right?

Same here. I recently got Akrapovic exhaust for my z06 and the tips do not look like this at all.

Dude you got ripped off! These are not real Akrapovic tips. Where'd you buy these from? Here's the product listing page on Akrapovic's real website. These tips are not pictured anywhere:

Sorry for ya, man.

I think maybe he knows they are counterfeit and is trying to pass the "savings" along. Thus the silence, and the sale of new parts at new prices?

The eBay add does say Akrapovic "style" tips so I'm sure that's how they get away with it, and "universal fit"?

It would appear he purchased a set from Southern Car Parts last year and installed them.

This poster is a forum member, and he is selling very questionable items as genuine parts.
At least the pics make them easily identifiable as fakes.

So the OP logged in today at 1:09pm but did address this thread. That seems kind of shady.
