They are listed as $9,999.00 and are not currently available

Any ideas?

 

JoeZ stopped manufacturing them because of melting issues. Don´t know why they still list them.

I desperately want a working solution for the tips as well... Don´t want to paint so a non melting version of JoeZs tips would be perfect ;-)

 

I believe they melted only under track conditions

 

You mean like this? I think I still have my old set sitting around....

 

I bought mine on group buy for $7000... and they didn't melt!

 

^ you paid a grand just for tips???

 

I know a few handfuls of IS F owners who would love to have the CF exhaust tips. I believe lukeisf is right in that the complaint in a one of the threads was a melting issue, but only when the car was tracked. I don't believe these would have any effect under normal driving conditions, daily or not. They do look great, especially with other CF accents around the car.

 

I do not track my F and my passenger side tip melted a little bit. Even with the melted part, I love my CF tips and will never take them off.

 

at that price, I'd rather buy a part for my car thats functional rather than cosmetic.... but to each their own.

 

am i reading the price correctly?? $10k??? too baller for me haha

 

Lol that is not even close to what they sold for. They were a couple hundred if I remember correctly. The price tag of 10k I think is there way of saying they aren't for sale anymore.

 

There is a bunch of stuff on there site for 10k.
I think it's there way of saying it's unavailable or special order.
I don't get why they don't just remove the items and put "call" for special order items in the pricing box.

 

They aren't for sale anymore. I believe Joe Z is working on a solution because they melted during track runs.

 

Carbon comes in several allotropic forms, one of which is diamond. The $10K tips must be that form!

 

I guess if they melt to your tips, you don't have to worry about someone stealing them...
