Default exhaust tips

What's up guys!?! I'm looking for some chrome exhaust tips for my car! I prefer the stock look chrome or a nice silver finish, since mine are looking dull! Do you guys know of any place that has them? I really don't want that loud funky noise that most ricers have! (no offense to the people that have them-not for this car)

Thanks again guys!

Putting on tips do not increase the noise of your car unless you get a tip that is made specifically to do so. Getting a regular tip will enhance the look of your car.

Check out the tips on CyberGS3's car, they are really nice. They look like the stock tips but are a little bigger so they fill up the opening. I believe he said they are 3 inch aftermarket tips.

Yeah, those do look nice! How big are the factory tips and do you guys know where i can get some tips that CyberGS3 has?

Thanks again guys!

Here are a few pics of my tips which are 4" in diameter. I am running magnaflow mufflers with magnaflow double walled tips.

I like that side view, but really don't want them too big. (Nice)

Bmoon,

Actually the mufflers are actually smaller than the stock mufflers. The 4 in tip gives you the impression of them looking bigger. Good luck with your search for a muffler.

Hey Bryan, I actually like that size better than stock. What model # is that? I will probably get those when I have to replace mine. My right stock muffler has a slight tear on it.

I guess I will get a chance to see it in person on the 26th, right? You're coming up for the End Of the Summer Meet?

LexAristo will be there, but Michelle (my car) won't be. I'm gonna go with a few close CL members that I know.

I'll get the model # for you tomorrow. Wait actually I made a post with many pics the day I installed them. hehe let me go find it.
