Question About Exhast Tips...

[georgio440]

Hey guys, so my exhaust is pretty much complete. Magnaflow mufflers and a nice O/R X. The finishing touch would be some nice tips. I have the stock ones on right now, which look decent, but I would like some chrome ones, and perhaps slightly larger in diameter. I'm not sure because I haven't checked, but are the stock tips welded on or bolted on? What do I need to do to install some new tips? Thanks for any help.

Should be welded on , get yourself some nice 3 inch rolled tips.

I was looking at some SLP 3.5" chrome tips, but they're like $60 a piece. :\

IMO SLP 3.5in rolled tips are

in most cases (not all) anything bigger than that just looks to big, but I remember seeing a bullit with some 4in. on there and it looked pretty good

I have the slashed/rolled tips from Summit. Can't remember the price. I got them welded on for like $35.

I quit updating this years ago but I have a few pics at the bottom of this page. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/593952/3

I had some Magnaflow exhaust tips that were 4". and 18" long. Got them from performancepeddlar.com They have a huge variety and the price isn't to bad either. Here are some pics from my old 03 GT. I got them welded on for about 40 bucks.

That should be some good angles. And sorry I love to take pictures.

I'm definitely digging the 4" tips... So when you guys are saying you got yours welded on for $35-$40, I'm assuming you're just talking labor, not parts+labor (since I assume you had the parts already).

So how do like the sound of your setup? I run an O/R X-pipe with OEM mufflers and it sounds like crap. I want to stick with the O/R X-pipe, so I'm looking for a good muffler option.

yes that is just labor and the tips were about 40 dollars a piece too. I miss my old 03 all I needed to do to it was lower it and it would have been perfect.

FoxRod, those tips are nice. I have 3.5 slash cut. The stock tips are just
too stock looking.

I've heard Pypes recommends chambered mufflers for great sound
