Default Chrome Tips other than Ford?

I have a 06 Gt. I would like to add Chrome exhaust tips, but want something with a larger diameter than the ones made by Ford. Any ideas? I have looked at many aftermarket exhaust providers but they don't offer much that fits the 3.0" inlet size. Thanks

Yes, try the MRT's. They are in my Sig pic. They looked awesome. In fact I'm selling mine b/c i have the Corsas now.

Go to your local muffler shop and pick from their selection. They should have a few options. Wal-mart has some too that you can bolt on or, my preference, have someone weld them on.

It's a real pain in the a$$ to find 3" inlet tips that are 10" long or less. You need them to be 10" or less or they'll stick out way too far. I searched for weeks and finally found some 3A Racing stainless rolled tips online. They say they'll fit a 3" inlet, but you have to do some minor surgery to get them to fit. They look real nice. I'll post some pics tomorrow so you can see what I mean.

Are you looking at adding tips to the stock mufflers, or do you want to ditch the mufflers and go with an "SLP wannabe" set-up like me and several others on the forum? I got 2.5" in and 4" out dual-walled rolled end tips from Summit. Cost me about $50, and then another $50 to have my local muffler shop take the old mufflers off, and put these on for me.

i was thinking about getting the MRT tips too, but i think i just might get the muffler as well. do the tips do anything anyway? does it add any sound or just for show??

Can someone email me a picture of the back of the GT and let me know how long you would need the exhaust tips to be? I also need to know how wide the opening is. We have exhaust tips made for us and may be able to get them with 3" inlets.
