6 Buyers; we need 4 more for pipes to ship!
I changed my order from the pure carbon fiber cans to titanium. Like some of you noted, both look great. However, when it comes to fading or discoloration of the cans, it will be more noticeable on the carbon fibers. According to Ron - from pipecity.com, the reason given for the fading is the increased internal heat coming oft from inside of the pipes. It is not the Sun's UV rays. He also stated that the exhaust need to be repacked after prolonged use in high temps. On another note, my wife says the titanium cans flow better with the bike, like the factory color. I still get the awesome carbon fiber tips
OK guys we need 4 more buyers for the pipes to ship. Ron reported only 6 thus far. Lets do it!

Update: I just got off the phone with M4 and found out that both the titanium and the carbon fiber pipes are good. But, in terms of durability, there is no question that Titanium is the better choice.
We have seven buyers; need three more for the pipes to ship

They both will last for years. My wife preffers the bike not too blacked out, and the titaniums add that nice accent. That is a tough decision you'll have to make yourself. I wanted practacality/durability, my wife preffered the titaniums, so I changed my order.

Re: Group buy for M4 Exhaust
Hi guys, I was in CA all last week and just saw this thread. Gemini, that's a good deal and I just placed my order, got the all-CF cans, w00t! I've sent you a private message but I think (hope!) I placed the order correctly, when I added the coupon code the price went down to $585. Thanks for the work in putting this together, guys!
Now, does someone have a sofa I can sleep on when What's-her-name finds out about this?

Re: Group buy for M4 Exhaust
Oh, and in the instructions, it said to "...post on SBN so we can all keep track!" Where/what is SBN?
