Default Opinion on Tips? *PIC

Hey guys, I have a Borla Catback exhaust and I love it, however I'm not sure how much i enjoy the tips. So I was wondering what tips you guys used on your cars.

Not 100% sure if the tip in the pic is actually Borla. It just came with the exhaust and so did the valences.

The valance does not flow with the car very well... with a standard CME valance, those tips look good IMO... it's the valance that is ugly IMHO...

Thats the SLP CME right? It amazes me how awesome they made the Camaro SS look, but then they come up with that hunk of crap. I applaud them for trying to be different, but holy crap its bad.

This setup is not my style. A friend of mine had it. It's not the stock SLP CME, it's an aftermarket SLP CME quad setup so, no, it's not Borla.

With that said. I think the tips would look better with a standard CME valance. However, I vote for a new valance and new tips if it were mine.

I wasn't sure what the tips were honestly, It just came with my the catback system, I really don't care for it at all. Is my best bet ebay or on here to find some Borla tips?

Ditch the valance, and if you get a traditonal cme valance ditch the horrid quad tips too and get the dual outlet and make it right. Quad tips don't look good at all.

Ditch that valance its fugly!!! But there is nothing better than a TRUE CME but if thats not ur style, try a subtle look with turn downs.

The tips aren't TOO bad imho but that valance is KILLING the looks of the rear of the car. Just my opinion tho, go with what makes you happy.

Honestly, I hate them tips as well as that valence. Doesn't flow with the car, the valence don't and the tips look like something you would see a 4-banger try and pull off. Just my $0.02 though.
