Appearance & Detailing - **UPDATE** Contemplating different exhaust tips.. Opinions

So I ran some 3" Corsa clones on my duals for awhile, I got the small ones, and they didn't look right. Currently I'm running duals dumped with turndowns. I am planning on putting some dummy tips in the spot of the bumper. On my old 97 I had some Magnaflow dual oval exhaust tips. They looked great when clean, and since they will be dummy tips, I'll never have to worry about them getting dirty again. They are $140/pair tips, and I told myself I wouldn't buy them again. Well, I think I want to.

I really don't want to put more Corsa clones on my car, because nearly every Fbody has them. Tell me what you think about these tips on my car.

I've never seen another car with these tips. So this would probably be the 2nd car with them.

**UPDATE**
UNVMYSS and I worked out a trade deal. I gave him my Corsa clones, and I got his Magnaflow dual tips. Worked out great!!

In my opinion, something is better than nothing on the trans am rear fascia. A friend of mine had the large genuine Corsa tips, them shits barely fit in the slots.

If you had a Camaro I would recommend the CME, those look freaking sweet as hell. But I like the look of the quad tips out the back, remind me of the Corvette in a way. I liked the look of your Corsa tips.

Look at the single wide tips like the GMMG ones from 6LE.

I'm wanting to keep a dual tip, but I have considered single ovals in the past. I'm just not a fan of the GMMG ovals.

What about the b&b triflow or the magnaflow dual tips?

I love the B&B Triflow tips. I just can't find any!

And these are Magnaflow Dual tips btw. :jest: Magnaflow Dual Oval Part # 35169

Ill trade you my big magnaflow tips...i think they're 3.5"...
I liked them with the body kit but without it they just look rediculous..

I think they look good. If you are looking into oval tips the Mecham tips look great as well.

And this is what those Magnaflows could look like on your TA...

Get some 3.5" corsa clones or my favorite, mecham power ovals...wish I could find some.

Furious,
Thanks for the back up bud. These magnaflows would look much better on a trans am then my camaro.

Here are the Pypes ovals I had on my first WS6.

If not those, stick with some big o'l corsa's, had them on my last TA and I loved them.

I think them oval ones would look good on a Camaro also. Just my thought's though.

Unvmyss, PM sent.

I like the Mecham and Pypes ovals, but I'm really interested in a dual tip on this car. I like that Magnaflow dual tip with the rolled edge. I just really liked these quad ovals on my old 97.

mecham tips

I saw someone with billy boat tips from a vette and they looked killer!

Ive had 3.5" and 4" clones on my car...both dummy-mounted. Its not hard, adjust them once and they never move or get dirty

3.5s

I think I like the 3.5" Corsa clones better, but like I said, I'm not interested in Corsa clones anymore.

Either way I worked out a trade deal with UNVMYSS to trade for his 3.5" Magnaflow dual tips with my Corsa clones I got. :thumb: I like those tips.

I think UNVYMYSS's tips are 4"..

i say the corsa clones...i know alot guys got them ...but thats cause theuy look so sweet on trans ams....just my opinion:engarde:

Awesome. You will love them.

I agree too! I like the look of them on the T/A's.
I also like the Pypes ovals as well.

Corsa clones definitely look great, but everyone has them, and I like to have something different. I'll be happy with these Magnaflow tips for sure.

So the trade with me an UNVMYSS worked out great! Got his tips in yesterday and mounted them up today. I'm very happy with the way it turned out!

Boss.

Wow man those look great on your car!!!

Those fit perfectly on your car. Very nice!

Just for funsies, this is what they looked like on my car, left, and how his new ones will look, right. Just a mock up.
http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh120/james42806/fd1198b0.jpg

Do you like them? I agree the Magnaflow tips are too big for a Camaro!

Yes I like them perfect.

:thumb: I've gotten many compliments on my new ones also! :)

You should do the CETA mod...

No way! You cannot paint over SOM! I had it on my old silver 97, but I can't do it to this car! Even so, it doesn't look good on SOM.

He has one of the only birds that look perfect without the CETA mod. And without the black sail panel

I think guys both did well on the trade!

I like the 4inch40s corsa clones, i think dummy tips are kinda dumb though,just imo but run extensions to the back,sorry i just dont understand running tips to nothing

Well I did have pipes ran out the back if you look at one of my original pictures with the Corsa clones. The only thing is with the pipes ran out the back, it made the sound too mild for my taste. The dumps give it a nice rumble and depth. So I took them off, but hated having no tips in the bumper. So I went with the best of both worlds. Dumps and tips! :)

Thats why I have an electric cutout. THAT's the best of both worlds lol

Dummy mounted? They'll never shift or get dirty ;)

:cool: Can't go wrong, IMO.

I definitely like the look of the dual/dual exhaust on a T/A. I hope you don't get too much of the wrong kind of attention driving around with those dumps.
