Default Which tips look better?



Or





Trying to tell my friend with the red car that he needs some tips like the ones on the white one above. The pic of the white car was shamelessly stolen from this forum as a reference.

Typically I like dual-dual tips much better than a single round tip but those ones on that red car look kinda cheap. So, of those two I have to go with the white car.

the tips on the red one look like the Hooker catback tips - they were on my car when i bought it. they look good from the side but they are paper thin and you can't even tell they are there from a straight-on view. I'd go with a thick dual tip. Corsa rocks your socks, but your wallet too.

He's thinking about those but we're going to an exhaust shop tomorrow to set up an appointment for the new mufflers and we're gonna see about tips.

Single tips belong on camaros, dual tips look better on a t/a because of how the bumper is shaped.

Lol well we think opposite. I personally think camaros should be true duals with dumps and TAs should have rolled singles

Well he ordered some nice magnaflow rolled dual tips, I'll start another poll once they get put on

I think Camaros should always go with turn downs. TAs have their choice between singles and duals. I like the duals a bit better because they're more horizontal and less vertical (IE less hang from the bumper).

Usually duals are better to my eyes... but a rolled or dual-walled tip will always look better than a plain one you can't see from behind.

Ill tell ya what. I am pretty sure I was the first and only guy to put stock Z28 tips on my white formula. They tucked away very nice, much better than the stockers, and the black looked CLEAN on white. They looked bad ***...Check em out. This would be my vote for sure!

White car, but duals look better on T/A's imo if they don't stick out too far. What ever happened to Billy Boat tips? I thought they looked the best on birds.
