Beetle Chrome Tailpipe Bundle Kit

This standard chrome tailpipe is a faithful reproduction part, designed to suit all classic Volkswagen Beetles (1960–1979), Karmann Ghias (1960–1974), and VW-based Buggies and Bajas (1960–1979) equipped with 1200cc to 1600cc engines. Styled after the original factory-fitted pipes, this tailpipe delivers a classic look with a crisp, vintage tone.

Constructed from steel and finished in “Sunny Climate Chrome”, this tailpipe offers the brilliant polished aesthetic loved by aircooled enthusiasts. However, please be aware that due to the nature of this reproduction chrome finish, no warranty is provided on the chrome plating. This chrome is intended for dry-climate use and may rust or oxidise within months in damp or harsh environments, such as the UK. Regular cleaning, polishing, and waxing are strongly recommended to preserve the finish.

Each tailpipe is approximately 265mm in length and is sold individually. A pair is required per exhaust system for complete installation.

To install this tailpipe, you will need a tailpipe fitting kit (sold separately – see part number 111298051BBT), with one kit required per tailpipe. For convenience, a bundle kit is available that includes 2 x tailpipes and 2 x fitting kits – see part number 113251163KIT.

These tailpipes are ideal for restorers and enthusiasts aiming for an original look without the cost of OEM or stainless upgrades.

This 35mm internal diameter clamp is a high-quality reproduction designed for securing tailpipes to the standard exhaust system on VW Beetles and Karmann Ghias. Additionally, it is widely used to mount heat exchangers to the exhaust system across several classic VW aircooled models, including the Type 3, Baywindow Bus, Splitscreen, and VW Trekker.

Manufactured to OEM-style dimensions, this clamp offers a snug and reliable fit, ensuring a gas-tight seal and secure connection. It’s a vital part for both exhaust performance and heater system integrity.

Whether you`re doing a full restoration or just replacing a leaky clamp, this durable metal bracket ensures long-lasting performance and ease of installation.
