[W126 Coupe] AMG Exhaust Tips for SEC?

[wjs]

Thanks, Rich. I'll double-check with my dealer. The Jag tips sound  
nice. I've got Euro bumpers like you must have; they don't protrude  
too much out the back end, do they?

Your friendly MB dealership will be glad to sell you some AMG tips at  
an appropriate price of course. Not sure if AMG tips differ, but I  
looked at OEM MB tips (Either stainless or chrome double wall) on  
late model CL and S class models but they won't work on W126 cars  
unless you have a 90 degree elbow turn down at the end of your pipe.  
The MB tips had a slot cut out of the top that accepted the turned   
down end of the OEM pipe.

I went with OEM Jaguar tips for the supercharged models (XKS???)  
since they are stainless steel double wall construction, angle cut,  
and fit over the W126 2.25" exhaust pipes perfectly and are secured  
with a couple of set screws. Plus, they look cool coming out the back  
of an SEC!

Muffler shops have many types of exhaust tips. AMG tips may be hard  
to find,
but very good looking exhaust tips are readily available.
I removed the center resonators from my 1991 560 SEC and installed a  
Remus
exhaust - I really like the sound.
