I just got a set of chrome slash cuts from EP and they are sharp and look great. So my RH end caps will always look brand new.

FLHT, thanks for posting the link.

I just ordered the EPC Chrome Slash End Cap Tips for the Rinehert True Duals.

No problem man. I think all their tips look pretty nice. And they assure me that the black tips will hold up unlike Rineharts. My problem was I love the Rineharts and I love the black tips on a black bike but purple on a black bike would look ghetto at best.

UPDATE ON RINEHART. I have already bought replacement tips (see above). So I thought I would contact BUB to see what they would do about the purple issue. To my surprise they are sending out a complete set of slip-ons. The guy told me they have improved the baffle and the tips. New anodize process with a Teflon coating on the tips. And some kind of zinc oxide coating on the baffle.

Yep, same here. New set of slip-ons arrived yesterday, already installed...

Of course their was a pre-paid shipping label included. They want the old pipes back...[:@]

My right side one turned after 1700 miles. I fixed the problem!
