I requested the black cermic tip option to go with my color scheme. here's what they have put on for now, if you got to Dinan's website you can see what the black cermic option will looks like. but notice how much wider and bigger these tips look in comparison to what they have on other models! awesome! i'm hoping to get pics soon of the suspension and brake upgrades
Looks nice!

BTW: that marking on the left hand side on the green tape in the second picture right above the exhaust tip looks like a shadow of a woman walking

Is this $2700 after the 15% rebate or does the 15% rebate apply to that price?

How are they getting the shadow outline image of the lettering?

It almost looks like the tailpipe has a glass casing around a metal tube, so that an engraved image on the surface of the glass shows as a shadow outline.

just got an update that my car won't be done for another 4-6 weeks (That will mean 4 months I have been without it). Pricing firgures in this thread aren't accurate since it's dependent on many variables that haven't been figured out yet, like how much more difficult they find mapping to be. Computer is giving them fits! Exhaust with black cermaic tips will be done in 2 weeks, brakes and suspension 2-3 more weeks.
