Default Will C5 Corsa tips fit on an F-Body?
I found a set of C5 Corsa tips in very good shape, but will they fit on my WS.6?

Here's a pic of them

Ok, what is the diameter of the end of the tip? If it is 3" then is say they will work.

It will work fine as long as you can get the inlet side matched up. They look pretty good on Camaro's and I bet it would look sick on a TA.

Get them, they will work. Even if its not the exact same size, a muffler shop can make it happen. I beleive your exhaust pipe will be at least a 2.5, thats no difference at all.

yea I got the SLP LM1... i think i remember it being 2.5 before the tips...

i guess if they don't turn out good, i could turn around and sell em for a pretty penny
