I think that's cool. It's outside the box. The only thing I would've done is maybe push the tip a little further toward the rear of the car.
@elarm1 said it well, everbody has an opinion and we all know what those are like.
If somebody built a nasty sounding car with an engine that thumped your chest and was explaining his sidepipes and pointing to them with scuffed up fingers because HE built it, as opposed to paying someone else to... now THAT is cool... and I wouldn't give two F's what the check writing hobby car guys think... just my opinion.
