2 pairs meaning duals for each side, or duals for two cars?

Cant wait to see how they look installed.

I've heard the hooker tips are chrome not Stainless steel so they don't last very long and rot to pieces. Especially the tips that come with the hooker cat back.

I personally would not get them. I don’t believe that those are aluminum so with in due time those are going to look like a rusty nail. I paid $100 for mine and they are Lawson Industries Part # 55157 and they are polished aluminum. If you call them they also have the 3" inlets available.

I have a buddy that has these tips. He likes them a lot, but I just prefer the single tips.

alright to clear up some thoughts..... Each tip was 34.99, so 2 of them was 70, plus about 9.99 for shipping.... thats 79.99 FOR BOTH SIDES OF our cars.

They are not Aluminum, they are not stainless, they are STEEL but hooker has a lifetime policy on the CROME that is plated on the tips... so im not worried at all....

Ill have pictures up by tomorrow, but i think there going to look sick...hell for this amount of $ i cannot see why i was driving around im my old tips.... there so ugly.

You can get Hooker Stainless steel dual tips for $100 per pair as well, if you're worried about corrosion.

Or you can get these for $85 plus shipping for a pair.
