Default Tips

So after christmas I plan on getting my exhaust redone to be the same size. Currently I have like 2 different size pipes on the car and I think it is restricting it and looks bad. So I will either be going with 2 1/4" or 2 1/2" pipes. My problem is once I do that I will no longer be able to use my GT tips. So I am looking at new tips to get. Any recommendations on what might look good?

Current look:

I think 2+2GT knows of a place to get those style tips that will fit larger than stock size pipe.

If I had to choose between the two sizes, I would go with 2 1/4".

I did this a while back, and now I kind of regret not going with smaller tubing.

Yeah im sure, the tips are 1 7/8" inlet. Too small for me, so I'm looking for bigger ones.

Ugh there was a new edge cobra that had some very nice tail pipes, it was grey with black cobra lettering on the back bumper. Can't find a pic of it ATM.
