I fell in love with the OEM quad tips the first time I saw them. I would love to add them to mine but I fear the sound on a 3.7 would not sound good, nor give me the sound level I am after but hot **** they would look great.

You have an 11 v6 then converted the rear to 2013?

VancouverV6 has them on his v6 and they sound very..ferrari-ish to me Awesome sound. Not like a v8 but much better than stock i suspect

No. I have the '13 taillights but I have been unable to find a '13+ bumper close to me in the correct color. But if I knew how the quads sound in person, and I really liked them, I would have no problem paying to convert my rear end around.

I have heard of a few 3.7 owners who have installed them but have not been able to hear them in person. Video vs. in person sound can be completely different.

Darren,

Did you have to replace the entire rear bumper cover on your '13 to accept the quad tips or just the lower flat black piece? Assuming only the black piece was swapped out, the bumper cover behind it must need a bit of trimming?

I really like the sound! Low and grumpy...

BTW your car looks great!

Jeez~ Sorry…not paying attention!

Wow, you had to do more than just open up the exhaust openings. The entire lower edge needed to be trimmed as well!

Question: was removing the entire rear bumper cover really necessary? For as “Floppy” as those plastic fascia parts get when unsupported it would seem like it would have been an easier job with it still attached to the sub-frame. It doesn’t appear from the pix that there would have been anything in the way of the saw blade.

Did you do a resonator delete as well?

Thanks,
john

The mechanics did remove the entire bumper assembly. Removing the brake lights also made re-installation easier i was told. I did not do a resonator delete. we discussed it but the end result wouldn't have been desirable for me. I love the sound with them. any louder or raspier would irritate me.

there are instructions on the inside of the bumper... the main cut line and slot cutouts are plain as day.
