Default Cme!

Tried a search and couldn't find anything. Does anyone have pics of what center mount tips would look like with no valence? I'm guessing it can't look good if I cannot find it. I was basically looking at tips, and possibly getting the valence later, depending on how it looked without.
Thanks, Tom

never seen it. but i do think it'd look a little wierd. why not just buy them and keep them packed up till you get the money to buy the valence? plus, you'll have to remove the pipes in order to install the valence, and have them readjusted since they would then have to sit lower to allow for the valence. seems like you would just be adding unneccessary work later on down the road...

Well I was debating how it would look without the valence, just never seen it done, guessing it wouldn't look good, you're right. I'm basically looking at different tip/setup, and wasn't ready to fully jump ship to the valence

Not the best but a video of a camaro with cme and no valence. As you can see the car has great taste all around so take it for what you will.

Here's an idea...Do the valence-less piping look and black out the pipes leading up to the tips so they disappear into the bottom of the car/ground. Just kinda thinking out loud here but maybe worth a shot.
