GMMG Tip options I posted about CMing a GMMG exhaust a few days ago, but I decided it's not practical and if I can only have one or the other I'd rather have a standard mounted GMMG than a CME setup with a Loudmouth. My question is what kinds of other tips people have used? I really don't like the standard ones, and if all else fails the premium ones look sharp. I don't know if they need to be shaped a certain way for optimum sound? I'd really ideally like mailslots but with a nice finish. Is it best to just get the premium ones?

The standard ones are ugly. I bought the premium tips, but don't like them as well as the ones I already had on my car. I had the silverline Z28 style on my T/A, and they looked great. They are like the Z28 tips, only stainless and bigger. I wish I would have kept them and not payed the extra $150. The tips don't sit that well in the T/A bumper, unless you hack up the $850 exhaust.

You can buy and mount a set of standard SLP dual/dual tips.
I had be running my setup, 2002 TA/Hawk, GMMG with the dual/dual tips for the past 2 years. I just need to buy a spacer/extender for each tip. Cost about $15 is misc parts from Advanced Auto. The back end will look like stock!
I've since changed my mind, and now Im using the Wide Oval GMMG tips.
But I can swap them back on/off anytime I want now.
For the Trans AM, I really like a tip that fills that wide area on each side. Just my 2 cents worth. :-)

I ran the standard tips for about a year...they are just too blah for my tastes...IMO, they look kinda lost back there...I added CME tips/valance and love it. If this isn't an option for you, then I would either go with the premium tips or some other aftermarket tip...maybe an oval with rolled lip...
