Shsh..Shake that a** girl...a poll
lol excuse the title, 50 was playin. Anyways, I figured I'd put a poll up and leave it open for suggestions as to whether I should have tips or not on my car. Personally Im content with the way it looks now, keeps it clean and sleek, and hides the fact that Im running dual exhaust....but Ill let you decide (sorry about the pic, it was the best one I had up on cardomain of the rear) Feel free to add which type of tips as well

Put on some 4th gen tips like mine, but in chrome. Run them flush instead of extended like I did to keep your sleeper look.

either way..
I just have to say your car is beautiful. Everything goes together, it just flows. really nice. *drools*
And i wouldnt go with 4th gen tips. i dont think they would look right on your car.

I agree somewhat. I like the look of no large chrome tips but if anything, make it the 4th gen style. Your car is nowhere near a sleeper so I wouldn't worry about that.

Id only get the tips if you find some that fit the style of the car. Personally I dont like the big chrome tips that all the jacked up trucks around here have. But maybe some like the 4th gen tips would look cool.

Leave it as is. Much cleaner this way. I bought the Dynomax cat-back for that exact reason. . .it appears stock and has just a slightly deeper tone than stock, but isn't loud at all.

I like my Dynomax too. Nice and subtle, but it gets the point across.
I say no tips, it looks better that way. IMO.
But if you want it to look a little different, go with the 4th gen tips.

uh, just to set you straight, you don't have dual exhaust. you have a single system with dual tips out the muffler.
personally i like the no tips look though.

if you do decide to do tips I was talking to my buddy that owns a local muffler shop and he just got in a set of exhaust tips that i think would look good. They are basically the LT1 tips but with a bigger inlet and you can get them in polished stainless or black chrome they're made by ractive i think...

I wish I could change my vote. I took the tips off my car because the new system is going on, and I like it better no tips aslong as the tailpipes aren't visible.
