Default need some help deciding exhaust tips

hey guys so i have a loudmouth 2 exhaust coming in tomorrow but i don't want to use the dual dual tips, they just really have never appealed to me. So im planning with getting some ssclones tips (corsa clones) but im not sure what size would look good on my car, should i go with the 3.5 or the 4"?

here is a pic of my car as she sits now:

I say no tips on the camaro, looks out of place. 4 inch corsa clones if you must. just put them on the Transam, and id never change for anything.

agreed! won't say they look dumb, but they definitely look better/cleaner IMO without tips. That is, unless you have some form of valence, either CME, or the dual exit like what's posted above. If not, dumped, or just some turn downs that you can't see would be the way to go.

cosign. for T/A's, you can't beat the 4" corsa clone style. for now, I'm still stuck with the 3.5" too

i pulled the trigger on the 4" corsa clones ones that look like the ssclone tips

question is does anyone know if these will fit on fine, or if they will stick out extremely far with the normal loudmouth piping?

I have a single tip dumped behind my bumper. I think Camaro's look a lot better without tips.

here is a little preview pic not fully adjusted yet, pipes are sticking out a little too far for my liking so need to figure out some adjusting. for full pics look for my borlamouth post up tomorrow.

let me know if you guys like it, not sure if they look too big or not, they are the 4" tips.
