Tailpipes?

zZsKyZz · May 17, 2007

I cut my tailpipes off last summer because they were rusting and currently have turndowns on the car... It's loud as all hell but sounds like a pickup truck and it's not a "good" loud... I'm looking for a new set of tailpipes but the cheapest ones I found are Flowmaster ones for $160... For some reason I can't justify spending that amount of money on just bent piping... Anyone know any other brands that make tailpipes? I work at an auto-parts store and even Walker tailpipes are $130 each... That's not even SS piping! I mean... Sorry to sound cheap and all but $160 for just metal pipe seems like a lot.. I'd rather spend money on go fast parts than just 2 pieces of bent piping.

Have you checked at a muffler shop to see what they would make you some for it?

Yeah, it's about the same price... 10-15 bucks cheaper...

Don't buy the chrome MAC tails. I'm about to cut them off and put turn downs on. I'll take the truck sound for more room under the car and get rid of my crappy tails. Mine started rusting the day we put them on the car.

I paid around $150 for mine if I remember right. Stock ones would look better than rusted Chrome pipes.

Put a wanted on craigslist for a stock exhaust... I am talking with a guy with a mach 1 to get his system when he removes in in a week or so if it isn't too mangled...

You could put a wanted line in your signature, too. I'm sure there are many members that have or are going to put a cat-back system on. You'll probably be able to get their old pipes for next to nothing. They'd be headed for the dumpster anyway.

A friend of mine just went to dumps on his 95 GT. He cut the stock tails off right after the muffler. If I remember correctly they are in pretty good shape. If you're interested, I can see if he wants to sell them.

Just finished putting them on... Flowmaster tailpipes with chrome tips.. $160

They look decent I guess... The car doesn't sound like a old pick-up truck anymore so I guess that's good.... Sometimes too loud doesn't sound right.

Its an expensive hobby (I guess thats a relative term to some). Stainless Steel is the way to go, they wont ever rust.
