Search for a member called CYBA. Look at his previous threads and you will see all the exhaust tips he has. Excellent quality and a fair number of people have got them from him.

Only thing i would advise is check your bore size, as if it is the same as the tips, then the labour cost in welding them will be more. Mine were the same.

I had the Cyba tips and one of them ended up cracking.

I've now got some from AMD and they're much better quality.

Why not just clean them?
When I bought my Cosworth years ago mine looked like that, it didn't take much effort to get it gleaming again with some fine wire wool, metal polish and some cloths
