I have high mount MIVVs on my M900i.e. and want to go with low mounts. I keep seeing D&D brand slip-ons for a very decent price, but I know NOTHING about them. Does anyone have any suggestions?  I'd be willing to buy used if I could find them. I want to be budget conscious since I'll need to remap the PCIII.

I'd seriously consider a trade. I personally LIKE the highmounts (and they sound GREAT), but I also like to ride two up which makes these inconvenient. It's either get low mounts OR also buy a gt-1000 (the choice I'd prefer but the wife would kill me). If a trade doesn't work out, I'll totally pass these on in the parts for sale forum as I really don't want/need them.

I'm thinking of either arrow or two brothers slip ons. I'm not one of those people who get terribly excited about CF bling, but the CF on these MIVV cans look nice. I do have the db killers for them. I'd be fine with aluminum cans.

You dont want mine-I mean....maybe but they have lived a rough life on the track. They hit only a few degrees after my knee. So the one has a hole wore thru it and the other is on its way.

But I would really like to help you offset the cost of a new set

An affectionate nickname for D&D pipes is Deaf and Dumb. A local here picked up an S4 with some and they lived up to the appellation. They were loud, dare say louder than Termis and did not sound good at all.

Thanks Yuu. That's what I was hoping to hear before I dropped a few dollars on something. You saved me some $. I'm going to call two brothers and see if I can get some cans on order. My brother has a set on his 750 i.e. and I really like the sound - throaty but not obnoxiously loud.

Someone in the parts for sale forum has a set of MIVV high mounts exactly like mine. I think he wanted $600 for his. They're still available (I think).

Well, the customer "service" person at two brothers was quite dismissive as they no longer make anything for my bike (nothing about what they do make which might work, but oh well).

So Arrow or Leo Vince? They're about the same price and get about the same reviews, but I haven't seen too many people in my area with either one.

While I have the high mount Arrows I don't think they would sound any different than the low mounts.  I absolutely love the sound of Arrow cans.  I think they are the best compromise between Loudness and Low Growl. waytogo

They proudly suck at customer service (I think they are in a competition with Corbin to see who is the worst),

but to your point the old TBR's were absolutely some of the best sounding cans on a Ducati

take another pass at speaking to someone else there before tossing in the towel

i've always loved the marving megaphone style low-mounts:
http://www.monsterparts.com/pc/RSS-D4/Exhaust/RSS-D4.html

they also have your standard oval canisters as well...
http://www.monsterparts.com/pc/DM600/Exhaust/DM600.html

Jeff @ Monsterparts also has a nice selection of Leo Vince lowmounts for your bike.
If you're not in a super-fast hurry, i would say pick up those Marvings. They look pretty sweet.
