Stolen? Fell off?

I mean, who steals 1/4 exhaust tips?

That's very strange. The tighten screw is usually pretty hard to come loose. Must be a new TikTok challenge.

Seriously though, what's the best replacement method? Just eBay one? They seem kind of expensive.

Maybe someone was scared away before getting the other 3…?

Are there any fresh witness marks on the bare tailpipe that might suggest it was loose rattling around?

Good question. It's 100 degrees outside. I'll go get under the car when the sun goes down.

From the photo, the two tips don't belong to the same type, which is odd!
(Imagine the outer cover of the inside tip is dropped off, what remains is still not the same type as the outside tip)

These finisher tips include the carbon outer and perforated metal inner. On the left is what the muffler look like without a finisher tip. Totally normal

Replacement?

Look on the M2 forum here-there is a fella selling 3. They might/might not match yours, however.

I have a REMUS rear section with carbon tips.
While ago I was adjusting how much they come out and so on, I forgot to tighten one completely. It was easy to move in and out and rotate but it never fell off.

Weird. Do you see any scratches on your diffuser?

Epic troll move if someone stole this because they knew you would have to buy a whole new set of 4 tips just to replace 1.
