AWE or Fabspeed Chrome Black. Help me choose.

I'm thinking about getting new exhaust tips for my '09 C2S Black/Black Cab. I currently have the standard stock S tips I really am liking the chrome black ones that I see from AWE or Fabspeed.

Please help me choose which one to go with.

The awe's look like they have more of a black hue to them, which I think will look nicer on your car and look less dirty, whereas the fabspeeds look more on the silver side.

The AWE's look amazing...I'm even thinking about justifying the price and getting a set to complement the AWE exhaust on my car

Let me know what you find out...I truly want them haha...I've even thought about having my OEM ones refinished in a similar finish, but those AWE's...*drool*

Just spend the $500 and move on :-)

You already spent 70k+ on the car!

Both of you should just get it. The AWE tips are truly beautiful, especially with the rolled edges. The black chrome is beautiful and the tips are wide. They fill the cut outs very nicely, unlike the small OEM ones.

The factory sport tips are 900 a pair and the PSE tips are over 1K a pair. The AWE tips should be considered a BARGAIN.......

Some of you had said $500. Am I missing something? I only see them listed at $695.
