Heres the deal, when I first got my cobra rear bumper, I had stock 2 1/4" lx tailpipes welded up. They looked way to small and didnt fit right. Hung down below the bumper. Since I need tails for inspection and I think they look good, I went and got a MAC cat back with 3" tips that were welded on. Well, needless to say, they stick out to far and still do not look right. I want to know what cat back system do you have that has the tailpipes nice and tucked up along the cobra rear bumper, looking for both 2.5" and 3" tips. Heres a pic of a members car that I love how the tailpipes are and I want my tails like this, thanks alot

This is my friends car that I work on and we put on Dynomax 2 1/2 inch stainless tails on it. I think it looks perfect.
