Default Opinions on Pacesetter exhaust tips

Im about to buy a 98 trans am. It has LTs,full 3inch exhaust to a flowmaster muffler. It sounds good but its got those generic slash-cut flowmaster tips that all full size truck have. It doesnt fill out the rear bumper and looks kinda off. I like the way the dual tips look. I was looking at these http://www.summitracing.com/parts/pye-evt26 . but the square tips are ok. I really like the corsica clones but cant find any for a good price. The pacesetter tips look good http://www.summitracing.com/parts/psm-95-9919 but the yellow would look out of place. I could paint the yellow parts,maybe. Plus they have internal resonators. What would my exhaust sound like? Are there any dual tups with 3 inch inlets for a good price? Any thoughts, opinions will help. thanks

I got my corsa clones for like 99 shipped brand new from ebay, 2.5"in, 3.5 out , you are thinking of the actual corsa's costing that much.

When you do a search on ebay, they will not be listed at "corsa clones" need to do a search for like 2.5" stainless dual tips or you know along the lines of that.

My main question is if I go with the pacesetter tips, what will the exhaust sound like with the internal resonators?

Just go with the 2.5" inlet. When they go to weld it, you can have it flared. That's what I did. I went with these http://www.ebay.com/itm/YONAKA-CHEVR...55ba80&vxp=mtr....http://share.shutterfly.com/action/w...ZNGTJu0bM2bV0U

Please don't buy yellow accented exhaust tips, unless you have a very specific yellow theme for the car.
