Default Somebody want to help me understand this one???

Okay so one of the F-Bodies I was considering purchasing has aftermarket tips that look like this...

Mmmmkay, so after some reasearch I have found those tips online.

Now, the add for the Camaro also says that it has Borla exhaust, which leads me to believe it is a catback (what other exhaust parts does Borla make)?

Now I have done a lot of research and all of the Borla cat-backs I have seen would not line up with those tips... So.... does anybody know what he might have done with the exhaust? I would ask the dealership, but I highly doubt that they know....

Probably just shortened the borla tailpipes until the L shaped pipe for the quad tip exhaust would line up to where the quad tips would be, and either clamped or welded the L shaped pipe to the borla
I hope that's clear

^^^

That would make sense... I'd hope it isnt welded.... I think those tips are kinda ugly. I do really like the ones, and would probably swap these in if I got it.

I'm with 2k2WS6, and the tips then00b showed look much better IMO.

You like the ones on the Camaro more? Or the ones I posted?
