I think that's the Vibrant 1406. The link that I provided is selling it for $42.88 each, while the link that Nigxdoof provided is charging only $25.83 each. >>>>>CLICK HERE<<<<<

Steven, if you succeed in getting the muffler shop to make duals out of these please let me know. I am planning on doing that as well, but not with oval tips...just with round ones. I just can't find duals in the specific style and size that I want, so I may have to use singles and have the muffler shop make them duals.
yeah. i'll probably print these pictures out and take it to a muffler shop and ask them before I buy the tips, I'll keep you informed

Have you checked AAA's website? I was just browsing the Gallery to see what kind of tips they've installed and noticed a few tips in the Gallery section that look like what you're after.

yeah i saw their website, its smaller than the eisenmann tips, I assume your talking about the e60 5 series with the stock rear with the right side cut out, those are smaller..and besides I'm not looking to spend 400 on each side to get the tips installed. I'm sure they do great work since VT recommends them, but I can't afford to spend that much. Especially with all this sprint booster talk, damn I thought I got over the mod bug, but i I guess its bitten me again

Yeah, that's the one, but I also saw similar style (Eisenmann type) with bigger tips compared to that E60 on the cars in the other makes/models gallery.

Try sending them pics of of the ones you're after. $800 a side just doesn't sound right (btw, did that include piping and everything?). I was quoted with 90mm tips plus a full cat back for $1.3K roughly. This is with piping, tips and everything. I don't see how the 'Eisenmann' type tips could all of a sudden shoot up the price to $1.6K just for tips and no piping

Steven, did you ever call EuroRev? They told me they can get the Eisenmann tips for $900 when I asked them about it a month ago. I recognize that is probably out of your budget... but you get what you pay for.

I had that idea already but that type of oval tips won't work like the M5 eisenman tips because of these angle. The eisenman tips it isn't straight pipes and so, the outlet diameter is bigger than the pipe diameter. So you will have to find someone that makes custom pipes to get the eisenman look.
