Remember when I had those ugly *** tail pipes hangine down? Well I finally got off my dead *** and sawed them off with my trusty recip saw

Improvement?

Before:

 

After:

 

Laugh, look at how badly they are offset... I had what you had.

I have the same problem now with the offset, was under the car doing the exhaust (new flowmaster with new pipes & tips) and centered it on the gas tank, well, it's not centered....

getting that fixed on monday... as well as a cutout for my cat.

 

And a favorite of mine:

 

get some chrome 3" slant cut tips to put on there. they looks awesome.

 

Ya, next is tips. I have to debate upon that. I like a lot of different styles....I like what you said, I like rolled edges, I like square ones, I like Borla's....the list goes on...

 

yah I have chrome 2.5 slants... looks good, wasy better than what I had before.

 

Great improvement!!

 

my car was like that too when i bought it..

first "mod" i ever did to it was the tailpipe delete...


i just dont think these cars look good with any tailpipes at all..... *shrug*


its alot cleaner without them.. good improvement.

 

I think these cars look way better w/o any tailpipes then any tailpipe/tip combo you could have.

 

i like the look of no tail pipes, but i finally ended up finding ones i like, their a 4th gen z28 style. 2x8 polished s.s.

 

heres the pic

 

Those look good nolan. I think that they look good w/o tailpipes too. What I think would look really good is to cut holes out of the bottom of the bumper and make it in the bumper kinda like the back bumpers of newer GT mustangs. I dunno if I want to do that though.

 

Hmmm...the Z28 4th Gen tips look good, but I honestly think that 2.5" or 3" slant cut tips would look better. Oh, I have a quick question (idea), has anyone ever modified their exhaust so that the tips come out the side in FRONT of the rear tires? Wonder how that would look...

 

I like no tips at all on our cars except 91-92 Z28's /w the newer Z28 tips like Nolan has. I think it looks so awesome next to the sharp lines of the ground effects and the boxy look of the aero-wing they get.

That will be my next purchase to add to the garage, a 91-92 Z hardtop, black on black with polished factory rims.

 

Looks much cleaner without those tiny pipes hanging off, the car is lookin good.

 

pft, looked much better before



















just kidding, I agree the no tailpipes looks better on our cars!

 

looks good, i need to take off my tail pipes .

 

Yup, it's been done. It was a true dual exhaust and he didn't have clearnece.

 

nolanr, where did you get the SS tips?

 

They are just the regular z28 tips...you can prolly get them at a bone yard or ebay.

 

To me cars just don't look right when there are no exahust tips......

BUT it does look better then those things you had there before....

 

What do you think I should put on for tips you guys?

 

i personally think that the 4th gen tips just look "right" on our cars. but everyone knows about opinions, right? they're just like @$$holes, everyone has one, and they all stink



Josh

 

i agree, i like the 4th gen tips a lot. they really compliment the angles and lines on our cars. i'm gonna hopefully get some for my car someday... 'cause i need to get rid of the ones i've got... they're 3" slants, but they're rusted bad and way out of line. off with 'em!

my only question about running it without tips is if the exhaust fumes ever find their way up into the car? if not, i may just go cut mine off now until i get a new cat-back.

josh, i'm not an expert but i've heard its a lot of work to actaully run your tail pipes through your bumper. gotta do a lot of protecting form heat or it'll actaully melt your paint / bumper. could be wrong, but that's what i've heard. hope it helps! btw, it looks a lot better!

 

Hey Josh, where did you get that windshield banner? Ive been looking for one curved to fit 3rd gens with no luck.

 

Found it on ebay...I don't remember the username but IIRC he owned a decal website. That decal actually was curved to fit the windshield of a 4th gen, but It worked for me. I have the receipt to it at home. I'll let you know if i remember to look.

EDIT: Found it in my ebay feedback...its www.decalstore.com and his ebay ID is decalstore.com

Here is one that he has listed:

Good luck.

 

Hey Josh do you remember my GTA from the car show at hardees earlier this summer?? I have 3 inch chrome slash cut tips on it and they look awsome!! Here is a pic, yu can see some but not all of it.

 

Of course I remember it...you were the only one with a GTA that was there! I like the 3" slant cut...I wouldn't want them sticking out past tge bumper though, I would want them to be flush with the bumper.

 

joshp14 i got the tips on ebay , their brand new s.s. z28 style tips , they were 70 bucks on ebay , you can get them with a 2.25 or 2.75 inlet. I saw a car that had the rear bumper cut out for the tips.

 

Where in Iowa are you from joshp?

 

Des Moines area

 

i really like the 4th gen tips too. too bad my muffler only has 1 outlet oh well, it's hidden anyway, so it doesn't matter.

 

2.5" or 3" slant cut...looks better than the 4th gen rectangular tips.
