Quad tips on a 1LT 2017?

I’ve been searching around and I only see quad tips for V8s, does anyone rock a quad tip on their v6? If so where can I get one and I’m assuming I’d need a new diffuser also?

The NPP dual-mode, quad-tip exhaust is optional on the V6 from the factory. It comes with quad tips and a different diffuser, just like the SS. Most V6s I've seen don't have NPP though. I think it would be possible to switch from factory non-NPP to aftermarket quad tip but would be a pain because of the diffuser.

I installed quad tip Borla S and it was simple to change the rear diffuser after the suitcase muffler is out.
The quad diffuser can be found on ebay for cheap.

Looks great, I may do that, how does the Borla sound? I just have a muffler delete my friend did for me and it sounds okay but I'm looking for a deeper and more rumble sounding exhaust, Im not sure if I can achieve that with a V6 though

The NPP sounds great on the V-6s. I've had mine for 10 weeks now and I won't swap it out for anything.

Help please

By any chance does anyone know the oem part number for the quad tip diffuser? GM parts store has the worst pictures and the worst descriptions on their page lol I even called the dealership and the guy said both pictures are the same so I can't tell you for sure which one it would be

I'm 99% certain that this one below is the part you mentioned.

However, if you are about to buy a new quad tip diffuser anyway and don't insist on OEM, I would recommend to shop around a bit. I bought a more aggressive part last year, it fits very well and is looking way better than the smooth and unassuming OEM diffuser.

"Smooth and unassuming" 100% agree 😂
Really wish GM did a better job with the stock diffuser. Since I already have quad and I'm kind of lazy and frugal, I'll have to live with mine 😐
