Double Exit Aliminium Tailpipes

Part No: 03 FE 138 03 003

The Capristo Twin Tailpipe Carbon Conversion is a premier aesthetic and acoustic upgrade for the Ferrari 296 GTB and GTS. While the factory 296 features a central monolithic exhaust outlet, Capristo’s conversion reimagines the rear fascia with a sporty "dual-outlet" look. This kit is a masterclass in material layering, combining structural carbon fibre with vibrant anodised accents to create a more aggressive, motorsport-inspired rear profile.

Design & Aesthetic Architecture

This kit is more than just exhaust tips; it is a complete replacement for the central rear bumper trim:

• Carbon Fibre Trim & Mesh: The set includes a high-grade carbon fibre center trim and matching left/right carbon grills with integrated mesh. These components replace the factory plastic inserts, providing a technical, high-end finish that aligns perfectly with Ferrari’s carbon-fibre design language.

• Color-Anodized Aluminum Tailpipes: The inner tailpipes are crafted from aluminium and available in four distinct anodised finishes—Black, Red, Silver, or Gold. This allows owners to colour-match their exhaust to their brake calipers, interior stitching, or Scuderia shields.

• Wicrom Black Outer Sleeve: The inner coloured tips are encased in an elegant Wicrom Black aluminium outer sleeve, providing a sophisticated "double-barrel" look that adds depth and contrast to the rear apron.

Acoustic & Performance Benefits

• The +3dB Sound Increase: Remarkably, this conversion is not purely cosmetic. Even when installed on a completely stock exhaust system, the revised geometry and venturi effect of the twin-tailpipe design results in a proven 3dB increase in sound level, providing a slightly more visceral V6 soundtrack.

• Universal Compatibility: The kit is engineered for total flexibility. It can be installed as a standalone upgrade to the original Ferrari exhaust or paired with a full Capristo Valved System for the ultimate performance setup.

• Thermal Protection: Each kit includes a specialized metal heat shield for the dual tailpipes. This ensures that the intense heat generated by the 296’s "Piccolo V12" engine does not damage the surrounding carbon fibre or the rear bumper paintwork.

Technical Specifications

• Application: Ferrari 296 GTB (Coupe) and 296 GTS (Spider).

• Materials: T309-equivalent Carbon Fibre, Anodised Aluminium, Wicrom Black Coating.

• Fitment: Direct replacement for the OEM central exhaust surround; utilizes 3D laser-scanned mounting points for a "zero-gap" factory fit.

• Note on Anodising: As with all high-performance anodised parts, the colour of the inner tubes may naturally evolve over time when subjected to extreme track temperatures.

Installation

• Precision Fitment: Developed in Germany using CAD and digital prototyping, the conversion ensures a seamless integration with the 296’s complex rear aerodynamics.

• Professional Recommendation: Given the need to remove rear bumper sections and align the heat shielding, professional installation by a specialist workshop is highly recommended.
