Exhaust Tail Pipes.
The Porsche Exhaust Tail Pipes are genuine OEM tips designed for Porsche Panamera (970) models. As the finishing touch of the exhaust system, these pipes channel exhaust gases out of the muffler while giving the rear of your Porsche a distinctive, factory-correct appearance.  
Clamps Included.

Fits:

• Porsche Panamera V6 3.6L 2WD 2010>>2013
• Porsche Panamera 4 V6 3.6L 4WD 2010>>2013
• Porsche Panamera S V8 4.8L 2010>>2013
• Porsche Panamera 4S V8 4.8L 2010>>2013
  
  

What This Product Does:

• The tail pipes direct exhaust gases safely out the back of the vehicle. They are the visible end section of the exhaust system.~
• They also serve aesthetic and finishing roles — giving the rear a polished, completed look, often with chrome or specific styling to match the rear bumper cutouts.
  
  

Symptoms of Damage / When You Might Need Replacement:

• Rust, corrosion or pitting on the tail pipe surface (especially the chrome or finish).
  
• Dents, bending or damage from road debris, curbs, or impacts.
  
• Loose fit or play — the tail pipe loosening from its mount, rattling or vibrating.
  
• Unusual exhaust noise around the tail end, indicating leaks or gaps at the joint.
  
• Mismatch in appearance (one side damaged while the other still looks good).
  
  

Why Replacement Matters:

• Maintains visual integrity and factory look of the rear of the car. Tail pipes are one of the most visible parts of the exhaust.
  
• Prevents exhaust gas leakage at the tail end which could lead to noise, fumes entering cabin area, or inefficiency.
  
• Protects the muffler and downstream parts by ensuring the outlet is sealed and aligned.
  
• Avoids further damage — a loose or damaged tail pipe tip can vibrate, scratch the body, or damage mounting points.
• Using OEM parts ensures correct fit, finish, material (resistant to heat, corrosion), and alignment.

Diagram Ref No 19

Positioned at the visible end of the exhaust system, the tailpipe provides the final outlet for exhaust gases while completing the factory appearance of the rear exhaust assembly.

Designed to Porsche specifications, this replacement restores the correct fit, positioning and appearance when the original tailpipe has become scratched, corroded, dented, discoloured or damaged.

What This Product Does:
The tailpipe forms the final visible section of the exhaust system through which exhaust gases leave the vehicle.

Its main functions include:

• Directing exhaust gases away from the rear of the vehicle
• Providing the finished outlet for the exhaust system
• Maintaining correct alignment within the rear bumper opening
• Completing the original factory exhaust appearance
• Providing a secure connection to the rear exhaust assembly
• Helping prevent unwanted movement or vibration
• Maintaining suitable clearance from the surrounding bumper and trim

The tailpipe itself is primarily a finishing and outlet component rather than a performance modification, but correct fitment is important for alignment, appearance and secure exhaust operation.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Exhaust tailpipes are continuously exposed to heat, condensation, exhaust deposits and road contamination.

Common signs that replacement may be required include:

• Surface corrosion or rust
• Pitting or deterioration of the finish
• Permanent staining or heat discolouration
• Heavy soot accumulation
• Scratches or cosmetic damage
• Dents or deformation
• Loose mounting points
• Rattling or vibration while driving
• Poor alignment within the bumper opening
• Cracks around joints or attachment areas
• Exhaust leakage around the connection
• Tailpipe contacting the bumper or surrounding trim
• Significant visual difference compared with the opposite-side tailpipe

Severe corrosion or physical damage can weaken the mounting area and eventually allow the tailpipe to become loose.

Why Replacement Matters:
The exhaust tailpipe is one of the most visible components at the rear of the Porsche Panamera, so corrosion or damage can noticeably affect the appearance of the vehicle.

More importantly, a loose or distorted tailpipe may move excessively and contact the surrounding bumper or trim.

Continued movement can lead to:

• Rattling and vibration
• Damage to surrounding bodywork or trim
• Poor exhaust outlet alignment
• Increased stress on clamps and mounting hardware
• Exhaust leakage around the connection
• Further deterioration of the exhaust outlet
• Replacing a damaged tailpipe helps restore:
• Correct exhaust outlet positioning
• Secure mounting
• Factory-style appearance
• Proper clearance from surrounding trim
• Reduced unwanted vibration or rattling
• A clean and complete exhaust finish

Where the remainder of the exhaust system is still in good condition, replacing only the damaged tailpipe provides a practical alternative to replacing the rear silencer or complete exhaust assembly.

Diagram Ref No 18

Positioned at the visible end of the exhaust system, the tailpipe provides the final outlet for exhaust gases while also forming an important part of the vehicle's rear appearance.

Designed to match the original Porsche exhaust system, this replacement tailpipe restores the correct fit, alignment and factory appearance when the original outlet has become scratched, corroded, dented or damaged.

What This Product Does:
The tailpipe is the final section of the exhaust system through which exhaust gases leave the vehicle.

Its main functions include:

• Directing exhaust gases away from the rear of the vehicle
• Providing the finished outlet for the exhaust system
• Maintaining correct alignment within the rear bumper opening
• Completing the factory appearance of the exhaust
• Providing a secure connection to the rear exhaust assembly
• Helping prevent unwanted movement or vibration at the exhaust outlet
• Protecting the end of the exhaust system from direct exposure and impact

Although the tailpipe does not provide a significant performance increase, correct fitment is important for exhaust alignment, appearance and secure operation.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Exhaust tailpipes are continuously exposed to exhaust heat, condensation, road contamination and physical damage.

Common signs that replacement may be required include:

• Rust or surface corrosion
• Pitting or deterioration of the finish
• Permanent staining or heat discolouration
• Heavy soot accumulation
• Scratches or cosmetic damage
• Dents or deformation
• Loose or damaged mounting points
• Tailpipe rattling or vibrating
• Poor alignment within the bumper opening
• Cracks around joints or attachment areas
• Exhaust leakage around the connection
• Tailpipe contacting surrounding bumper trim
• A visibly different appearance compared with the opposite side

Severe corrosion or impact damage can weaken the mounting area and allow the tailpipe to become loose.

Why Replacement Matters:
The tailpipe is one of the most visible parts of the exhaust system, so deterioration can noticeably affect the appearance of the rear of the vehicle.

A damaged or loose tailpipe can also move excessively and contact the bumper or surrounding trim. This may cause:

• Rattling or vibration
• Damage to bumper trim
• Poor exhaust outlet alignment
• Increased stress on mounting hardware
• Exhaust leakage at the connection
• Further deterioration of the exhaust outlet

Replacing a damaged tailpipe helps restore:

• Correct exhaust outlet positioning
• Secure mounting
• Factory-style appearance
• Reduced rattling and movement
• Proper clearance from surrounding bodywork
• A clean and complete exhaust finish

Where the remainder of the exhaust system remains in good condition, replacing only the damaged tailpipe is a practical alternative to replacing larger exhaust components.
