They all have to see who can come up with the largest diameter & longest exhaust out of their black-choke pick-up trucks.


Oh hell, you probably took them off your big Dodge to put them on there!

Ive seen multiple firebirds with single 4" tips and the bumper area around the tips looks too empty which is why I tried the 5" tips.

I already run corsa tips on my white car so I wanted it to be a little different.

I did some 3.5 and they look puny honestly. I should have done bigger ovals or quads, but had the 3.5 on-hand

Took the wheels apart. Moving the rear lips to the front for another 1/2" of lip and the purchased new rear lips for another 1" of lip. Rears will now be 17x12.

Waiting on the rear lips to come back from powder coat. While waiting I swapped out the crappy stock steering wheel for a Momo wheel and also finished up installing Hella Micro De fogs.
