At Southern there are two buses that feature a Nabi Tip. 8099 & 8013. What you think is better the Flyer Tip or Nabi Tip?

It could be possible the tip had to be replaced and the only tips available are the ones for the NABIs. Baltimore MTA installed the same exhaust tip the New Flyers have on 0035 a couple years ago.

The exhaust tip is either attached to the muffler which gets replaced when the muffler gets replaced. Or the tip got broken off somehow and had to be replaced. Rabbit Transits 211-214 are only 3 years old and from what I heard the reason the doorside mirror on all 4 of them was replaced is most likely the original mirrors were broken off. And many of Bmore MTAs 04000 New Flyers are sporting the same doorside mirrors as the 05000 Series New Flyers as the result of the mirror getting broken off. Im pretty sure SEPTA used the same mufflers the NABIs have when replacing the muffler on 8099. And its possibly the same with 8013.
