Default Would this look wack? (side exhaust)

i want to cut an oval-shaped opening into a camaro with Wings West side skirts and put dual oval tips in it just like the 1st pic below. same tips and same size opening, just on a Wings West skirts. I figured it would look good since both the camaro and stang have somewhat round bodies.

what would be the best tool to use to cut out the hole? i know i'd cut it then use a sanding wheel on a drill or dremel to smooth out the edges.

or would a different shape look better?



Wings West skirts: (some of these might be RS skirts)

I remember the TA. I can't afford those tips though. Think they're on ebay for around 200 each.
