    Knocking on wood....just hit 20K miles on my originally spec'd and purchased 2015 458 Italia modded with 21/22 HREs, Novitec springs and IPE Titanium Exhaust from day 1. She is still running strong with no major service issues whatsoever and no issues from the mods and lowering (as many warned me about).

    For the record, at 18K miles, IPE swapped out my Stainless Steel rear portion on my exhaust after a small leak was noticed but I installed their Titanium F1 setup and it has been perfect ever since! My 7 year factory maintenance just ran out so now I get to start paying for service...I sure hope things continue to be rainbows and unicorns with this magical 458!

    Your car looks fantastic! Can you tell any difference in the sound between the SS and titanium? BTW I have a nearly identical setup on my 2015, just different style HRE wheels. I couldn't be happier with this setup.

    Your car looks fantastic too! I also love the 21"/22" setup even though I get a little rubbing now and then on the front fender "nubs." As for the IPE stainless vs titanium setups...BOTH are very similar, however the titanium version has a slightly higher pitch. You can't go wrong with either one as they both scream like the old F1 cars! :)
