Default GMMG Exhaust Tips

Can someone with a GMMG Exhaust that has oval tips help me out. I found a company that makes tips that look identical to the oval GMMG tips. Can someone that has these tips give me some dimensions so that I can have them made for my exhaust. The pics that they have show them as looking exact but without knowing the dimensions, I am leary of buying them. If possible, I need the height and width dimensions and also the length of the body along with the length from the inlet to the end of the tip. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They're 6-7/8" wide and 2-5/8" tall so I'm told. What company's tips are you looking at? Ractive, by chance?

oh hope nobody from GMMG see's this. I would smell a law suit or something, GMMG must like the profit they make from selling those tips.

lawsuit... LOFL.

they're nothing more than some boom tube polished up.

fairly crappy imho, but people love them. I didn't care for the set i had.

are you sure they're 6 7/8" wide, didn't seem to be that wide, but i could be wrong but that just seems to wide, i thought it was more like 5 7/8"

It's possible they're only 5-7/8" I don't own them myself so I wouldn't be able to say for sure. I asked this question a couple days ago and that's what someone told me.

I found them on Stainless-specialties.com. They are called their "Wide Oval" tip. If you look on their site, they have pictures of them in different sizes.

There's nothing wrong with making an exhaust tip look like something else, unless they try to call it the same thing as that something else!

It must not be too much of an issue because Stainless Specialties has had these types of tips on their site for years now. I am just wanting something different on my car and I am just now getting around to asking about it.

I just got an email back from the company. A pair of those tips is $149, unfortunately. I really like this design, but can't justify dropping that much money on a set of tips........ basically same reason I haven't given in and bought GMMG's tips.

There are no prices on their website, do you have to email them for prices?

GMMG tips you cannot purchase unless you purchase the chambered exhaust so that leave only that company listed above to buy from.
