    HRE 543R: Testing clearances on 2007 XLR

    That's my guess too. Looks like it's floats inside the opening. However, I will need to take it to a muffler shop and cut ends off and add pipe on both side to turn inward by 1" per side. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It's better looking than the OEM tips. Any pictures of the emblem used? Does yours have a heat shield? I'm headed to the shop to remove the tips now.

    HRE 543R: Testing clearances on 2007 XLR

    Once cut it appears that the 2009 Platinum exhaust tip slips right over the pipe? Hmm? I don't see any connecting parts from the diagram. I haven't gotten under the XLR to see if there's enough pipe (once cut) to fit into the part. If anybody has pictures please post, but I think this is all...

    HRE 543R: Testing clearances on 2007 XLR

    Upon reviewing the 2009 Platinum exhaust tips I think it's possible a person could tweak it to fit the XLRV using the 2009 rear fascia. Widening the opening and added material might be all that's needed. Then (maybe?) cutting part of the V- tips so as too fit inside the opening. Mainly, it's the...

    Do you see XLRs??

    Bakersfield, CA Today, I saw a Infrared base XLR with it's top down. I tried to catch up, but it was too late and no pictures.;) Anyway, I notice the wheels were wider with appeared to be wire wheels (old style) with white walls and gold trim on the tires. It was my the first time seeing the car.

    The exhaust tips are very Detailed, light weight using thin material. I was expecting it to be a heavier gauged metal, but it's beautiful and strange looking at the same time. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    HRE 543R: Testing clearances on 2007 XLR

    Today, the 2009 Platinum exhaust tips arrived and they are beautiful. I thought about having the exhaust tip fabricated by a local shop, but due to time, cost, and the heat shield I decided not to go that route. It's a two part system with the heat shield attached to the exhaust tip. I didn't...

    MaxCare Extended Warranty; 2007 XLR

    What MaxCare paid and what I paid. MC was nearly 5k. They would've paid for a refurbished CD deck, but I opt for a new unit which I paid. Pretty good insurance so far. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I texted the Ebay seller about the 2009 side vents telling him that they do work on pre-2009 XLR. He a nice guy and he might now list the vents but with warning "careful modification to the fender they will work." Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Finding a used platinum 2009 hood or any V-hood for that matter is like finding a needle in a haystack. You'll have a better chance at finding a mythical unicorn. Come to think of it I've never personally seen a 2009. The 2009s that I have seen are always on the Internet. Lol. During my...
