I've seen Ryan's car in person and yes, they do great work. I almost bought some tips from AAA for my 530.

PS - I was kidding on the "Why", Steven. You ended with "Y", so I said "Why".

I believe AAA was selling them for 75-100 a tip (4 tips). They also charge a lot to to customize to make the tips staggered and in the Y.

So at $75/tip x 4 = $300. You're trying to get what you paid for a used set??? Not trying to lowball, but if you'll take $150, I'll take them.

I think you missed this part 'They also charge a lot to to customize to make the tips staggered and in the Y'

don't forget the customization done to them. labor can get expensive.

Well I'm not trying to argue but I have to agree with the other guy. I just want to point out that you don't usually include for labor fees when selling a used product... It's like saying "hey I'm selling my M5 mirrors but you're going to need to pay extra for the labor of taking it off my car" or "I'm selling my used H&R springs for $300 since I paid $100+ for taking them off..."

Correct me if Im wrong. These are 4 Magnaflow tips, put on a Y pipe staggered. This is how much I paid for the same setup...
4x$36 for the tips = 144 (hookup, i think otherwise their about $50 a pop)
2x$60 for the y pipes= 120
Labour=$140 = 140
Total = Lil over $400

$300 for these tips is good price! Regardless if used. AAA Quoted me Alot more than $400 however...
