Default Angled Exhaust for 2IS

You guys know how some of the IS300 have angled exhausts?

I'm looking to get dual angled exhausts with burnt tips for my IS350 later. :P

I believe there aren't any angled exhausts made for the IS350, so I figured I'd have to do custom work. I'm planning to buy the GReddy SE exhaust with burnt tips and have the exhaust made to tilt.

Anyone know if this is possible/a ballpark figure for this mod?

Thanks,

Just do the ebay ones. lol To have an angled exhaust (dying trend) it'd usually look better with an N1 style exhaust. Because of the canister design of the SE, it won't be right.

Sorry ... Don't think angled exhaust would look good on a 2IS ...

I like how the megan exhaust looks on 2is' its not too angled. but just enough.

and to find out the price, a good start is how much each muffler would cost, those are probably the most expensive components, paying a shop to weld is cheap in comparison. especially brand name ones.

Angled exhaust were used to have less bends. Not really for looks. On a 2IS I think it would look like crap. Also using the Greddy SE type of muffler will not look right. Like ITR ^ said, it's usually used with a round canister.

Greddy SE is discontinued. But if you still do it, probably 100 - 200 depending on the quality of work that shop offers.

It looks relatively decent. I find that for my tastes, angled exhaust looks best if it's only on one side (Supra, IS300, etc.). On cars with dual exhaust I prefer the straighter look.

If I were to get an angled exhaust, I'd just go with a single tip not dual.
