Exhaust tips and wheels

I'm thinking of installing exhaust tips on my 91 GTA but i'm not to sure if it'll look good or not. I had slash cuts in mind or some dual duals to get a sort of borla look. Also I was curious about wheels and what really set the look off. Post pics of exhaust tips done and wheels please. I wanna get some ideas going.

Re: Exhaust tips and wheels

Personally, I DO NOT like exhaust tips on ANY thirdgen. I think they look way cleaner with the stock style setup. IMO

i agree to this. but i did see a third gen with dual/dual tips and it looked really good. but i would say the stock turndown look or the 4th gen z28 tips. the rectangle ones.

Re: Exhaust tips and wheels

who's the guy on here that post pics of a Blue or teal Z28 with silver GFX that had a custom center exit exhaust??? It looked AMAZING since he used old license plate cutouts and fiberglass(?) to create an almost factory looking notch in the bumper for the single rectangular outlet.

Anyone seen the car I am talking about? I went back to find it again for a pic but can't remember what the thread title was and search was a crap shoot.

That was hands down the nicest looking exhaust set up I've seen on a third gen. period.
