Put on some new tips
So i finally decided to ditch the stock 3" dual-dual Hooker tips for these Stainless steel polished rectangular-oval slash cuts. They have a rolled lip which i like. Just something to change it up a bit...
for reference I got them from Lou's Custom exhaust (they have a chain of stores here in MA, not sure about elsewhere) but i beleive Magnaflow makes them. They were $30 a peice. They look alot like B&B tips also..

nice tips, but they look fairly short to me..., about 6" long?

Thanks everyone!
the tips are 6.75" long, 5.25" wide, 3" tall. They have a 2.5" inlet size.
86TA- yup they are Centerline Daggers. I just put them on about 2 weeks ago

Excellent addition to your car.
I think they would look even nicer from the side if they were longer, but they're very nice nonetheless.

Car looks beautiful as always. Those tips kind of make it all come together with the new "touring car" look and I like it. Seeing all these posts of the nice cars makes me wish my new tranny would show up so I can get mine cleaned up and take her out.

Does that exhaust shop have an email address or can you give me a phone number to call since I am in Ohio, I really like those tips and would like to get a set since I cannot find anything quite like them. Thanks.

Those look pretty similar to my tips - nice choice. I used Stainless Works Mega Oval ends, but they did not have a rolled edge option at the time I ordered. I wish I would have known about those... mine cost too much!!!!

Here is their info for the main store, this is where they stock all of their exhausts, mufflers, and tips. Give them a call, i'm honestly not sure if they ship.. but its worth a shot
