Default Exhaust tips! ...help

Any good sites for em? I know a few shops around here but i wanted to know if there are any good websites just so i can get a good idea of a product to buy. Also, i have 2.5" piping, do you think i could go 3 inch tips as long as there is enough clearance between the tip and the bumper? Another thing if i were to say go with 3 inch how would that be done? To they just slide right over the original piping or would they cut it back and weld it or what? Sorry i dunno jack about this...someone please enlighten me!


would is for some odd reason screw with the sound in anyway?

Pypes, Borla, Flowmaster, Magnaflow, Bassini, all of their websites sell tips.

I got the Pypes header back, true dual, cat'd X-pipe, and Pro-V mufflers. All from RPM outlet in one package. I was looking at Borlas but too many unanswered questions like, extra hangers, will they fit with out cutting and welding or additonal required parts. No tips or any of that stuff but they sound good, a bit better throttle response and no effect on mileage, if that's a concern. They fit nicely under the V6 stock rear bumper and don't look like your're trying to be something your not. But I'm looking for more the sleeper type set up. Tips are OK but you have to consider what you're trying to achieve.

the tips i have are just always dull...im not tryin to make anything flashy...forget the chrome. I found some nice stainless steel tips that look exactly like the ones i have on now. I just dont like the dullness of the unpolish tips i have now thats all. Nothin ricey or flashy.

Well do you have GT take offs, or an aftermarket system, either way, it won't really matter as the tips just bolt onto the pipes.
