997 tailpipes

[geoff]

Are the 997 Carrera tailpipes stainless steel or chrome - the stock squared off ones? They look gunky pretty quickly, and I'd like to polish them up. If they're chrome, I don't want to use steel wool. Anyone know for sure?

They are definetly chrome if standard, unless the extra cost chrome-plated stainless steel tailpipes were specified on order, code X54. :thumbup:

Std Pipes are unpolished Stainless Steel.

I hear one vote for definitely chrome, and one vote for unpolished stainless :o Anybody have any other suggestions?

I vote stainless...

Chrome is pretty obvious, if you can't see your reflection in them, then I'm pretty sure that they're the standard stainless steel pipes.

I agree they look like stainless steel. The chrome would reflect like a mirror. I use wenol on my 04 Boxster, works every time.
