My Camaro Surgery isn't going as planned

Soo I dropped off the camaro this morning for it's surgery. My cell phone rings about 30 minutes after I left the dealership. It's my service advisor after talking to my mechanic my exhaust will be buzzing after installing the rear gfx diffuser. The problem is when I bought the gm performance exhaust I bought the one for without the gfx kit. They reccomend I don't put on the rear piece but I told them to go ahead and put it on. I guess my tips are super close to the metal benzel. My answer to you guys is has anybody experienced the buzzing noise with the gfx kit or not. I haven't recevied any more calls about any more problems so I'm guessing something is working right

You should stop by the parts dept and pick out a pair of tips that will fit. Will be more expensive, but you DO NOT want your tips rattling against your diffuser.

It will wear down the finish on both the tips and the bezels. You'll see scratches, not to mention hot exhaust that close to a body panel is never a good thing. Even if the parts dept doesn't have tips, I'd go pick out a decent set from Kragen.


...or install it without tips for now and order the correct ones.
