to the other guy - from the looks of it, it's standard issue resonators on the midpipe before it hits the cans.

I think this is the only 09 Tail 370Z exhaust in the US, so still rare.



As phelan mentioned, you can't replace the tips since they're part of the exhaust and I don't think Amuse is going to sell tips and risk having somebody ruin one of their "pieces of art."
Thanks for all the great info! That was very beneficial and informative! It really is a work of art! Phelan, I used your write up in my original post, you really did an excellent review of the exhaust.
