Default Exhaust tips

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone knows of any companies that sells polished/chromed exhaust tips for '05+ GT Mustangs?
I'm not too keen on the dealer ones(or their price). I'm not really considering changing the axle-backs(why bother to spend $300+ for no performance gain), but I like the large(at least 3") polished/chrome tip look. Any help on this subject would be greatly appreciated.

Just make sure they aren't the nasty slant-cut ones. Boo.

Check with Magnaflow.They have a nice pair of polished tips that look like the GTA units.

Yeah you don't get any real gains out of them, but you do get the aggresive sound and that's what really counts. I would just check these forums and others along w/ ebay. It's not too hard to find someone selling a set of axlebacks pretty cheap. I bought my set off someone here for $250 shipped when they usually retail for $500 and they were only used 700 miles.

I bought some great looking ones for my new 09 Milan.

Yea the forum classifieds are great. The sound is the big thing here...and trust me there are hundreds of forums on here dealing with exhaust sound differences/preferences. Also, don't base your judgement of exhaust solely from youtube videos...no justice at all and plus people usually have crappy sound quality---then throw in crappy computer speakers.

Also, if you want real gains change your mid-pipe and tune.
