Pics Of Foxes With Good Looking 3" Tail Pipes, Please

[FastDriver]

When exhaust is too big, it looks goofy, but I think 3" shouldn't look too bad. Always loved my old 2.5" system.

I'm thinking possibly
- standard stainless steel as opposed to chrome, but I'm not sure so I would like to see both
- can't see where the tips weld in to the pipe full pipe to the mufflers is probably best
- the right look on the LXs is when the pipes curve up at the same angle as the rear panels.
- Angle cut tips, as opposed to pipes that just end with as a complete circle

I'm guessing that most muffler shops can build this in a couple hours, but are there any specific brand recommendations out there?

I have yet to see a 3" on a Fox I liked, unless it was dumped.

Magnaflow 2.5" to 3", I think, = fail and no:

The car looks good. The wheels are alright, but the pipes stepping up from like 2.5 to 3 looks bad, and they don't end right.

If these are 3" tubes, they're close, but not angled just right for the rear lower 1/4 panel. They're angle cut like the stock tips, though, which I really like:

This is not bad on the angle or the tips, but is an example of where you see the tips connect before they're tucked safely under the car, plus I don't understand why they have to dip so low right behind the tire, but the curve of the pipes is interesting and more unique. If this were all chrome or stainless steel with no variation in color, it would be a good looking pipe:

The bottom 2 look like 2 1/4". I don't mind the red one but I don't like the step up either.

Not 3", but the perfect angle:

Here's a few shots of this car with a full 3" MAC kit. It is almost perfect. Maybe I could go with this if it could be shortened to come up just shy or right at the end of the body:

I like the wheels in the last pic, but you can see how the pipes look a bit long there. Could probably just shave about an inch and bring them a little closer to the bumper. What do you think about that set?

No, the bottom was a 3" flowmaster from here: http://vb.foureyedpride.com/showthread.php?t=105699

Actually, the curve of that pipe is growing on me, but I just can't stand the weld where it's so visible.

If you cut them off they will rust and not be smooth. I dont mind them on the top black notch.

LOL, this is a funny attempt to do LX tailpipe look on a T-bird:

It's all the same car. If what you said about cutting them is true, that sucks.

 

[gearheadboy]

It's all the same car.

Closer it is, worse it looks. The last pic shows just how far back it is.

 

[FastDriver]

Yeah, I agree. The first pic is the best.

Wow, that's horrible!

 

[FastDriver]

White car is hilarious! Love the truck mirrors that let him see around his "stacks."

 

[gearheadboy]

Wow, that's horrible!

Ya I thought the mirrors were a bit much

I lived in Crestview for 9 years, Bryan. Whereabouts are you?

Dude are you kidding? That's creative, right there! Smoke stacks, truck mirrors, big rig horns, and a huge antenna. At least he's got a theme going and some talent to get it done. More than I can say for most guys that modify their cars.

Either one or two.
1. Front fender on turbo cars like srtthis race car.
or
2. dump before the axle.

To me any 3" tail looks out of proportion with the back of the car.
