GM Performance exhaust tips

[BrotriX]

Hi all. New to the forum. Recently picked up a Yukon Denali 6.2L. Decided to have the GM performance exhaust installed (ordered and installed by my dealership). I was surprised when I picked up my Yukon that the exhaust tips had the Borla label rather than the engraved GMC label as shown on the GMC accessories website (yes, I know it is a Borla exhaust).

I was hoping to keep the Yukon looking mostly stock. And admittedly, the exhaust tips are a pretty subtle indication of a performance upgrade. But, I would have preferred the GMC engraved exhaust tips, or even the original stock exhaust tips over the Borla labeled ones.

Does anyone know why I would have received a set up with Borla tips rather than the GMC engraved ones? Is there anyway to buy just the GMC engraved exhaust tips to swap in? Photos attached.

Thanks!

Just tell them you want what you ordered and they can have Borla send them the correct tips

I honestly like my dealership… but they’re claiming that there are multiple different exhaust options for the Yukon and the one we chose was by Borla and therefore came with Borla branded tips.

My understanding is that there is only one GM-approved performance exhaust for the 6.2L and that GM worked with Borla to make it. But it would have GMC (or Chevy) labeling on the exhaust tips.

I only see GMC branded exhaust tips on the GMC accessories page. None that are Borla branded.

In short, I’d rather go around my dealership if possible rather than argue with them. Maybe I can contact Borla directly?


*Edit* Looking at the GM accessories page again, there are 3 performance exhausts listed… 2 are identical except black vs chrome tips and mention Borla. The 3rd is $100 less and does not mention Borla but shows the GMC engraved tips.

Can anyone provide any clarification?

Ask them for the old exhaust and (because its yours) and have a muffler shop swap them out.

I had that exact thought and asked for my stock ones back. It was claimed that the stock tips are welded. Based on an image from this thread that actually appears to be true.

GM Performance exhaust on 6.2L

GM Performance exhaust came in today, took me about 2 1/2-3hrs to get the stock one out and the new one in. Fit and finish is great, went together with no issues. Sounds almost like stock, on cold start up it's a little louder on our 6.2L but it quiets down quickly and gets very quiet. Normal...

I was also told that my stock exhaust had already been disposed of.

Found this related post. Very curious that there are 2 GM/Borla products with little to no discussion of the differences.

Performance Exhaust GM part Number

Does anyone know the difference between the two GM part numbers 19433760 and 84460754? I have a 2022 Yukon Denali and looking to upgrade my exhaust system. Both show up when I enter my VIN.

Anyone have any more input?

my only comment would be wary of using "stock" online photos as a point of reference. I'm in the boat that you should get what you "see", it's unfortunately just not that way these days. A quick read through the owner's manual will prove that even more...

If you don't want to get into a back and forth and maybe fight your dealer, reach out to Borla directly, explain the issue and see if they might swap them for you if they are new enough. When I was adding a Borla exhaust to a old tacoma years ago, they were very friendly and easy to work with. Hopefully thats still the same and they will swap it out for you, maybe offer a re-stock fee?

Honestly though, I would have liked to see a little more support from your dealer. Why won't they take it back at a small cost to you so they can re-sell it and order you the correct one?
