Default Advice on exhaust tips for my Formula

Can anyone recommend a set of exhaust tips that would look good on my Formula? It has a slightly different rear than the Trans AM, and all the pictures I can find of tips are on Camaro's or TA's. I am sick of my ugly, mis-aligned tips that came with my Magnaflow. Also, price is sort of an option, so corsa tips are out.

I was thinking about this:

Thanks

Dual/Dual Tips do look good on T/A's and Formula's.

Im partial to the tips that come on the Hooker Aerochamber catback. Dual 3" on both sides is just plain badass.

WILWAXU: Thanks for the move, I did not really know where to put this in the first place, this seems like the right place though!


Everyone else: Thanks for the replies. Any Formula's (or T/A's I guess) have pics of the Dual/Dual type tips?

Get some nice dual dual tips, not like the ones that you were thinking of with that black crap on the back. Magnaflow makes some nice tips also.

I have these on my Formula and I want to change them , I think they would look great on a trans am because of the rear end, but the rear on a formula is different and they just dont flow like they do on a trans am, I am thinking about some huge single pipe tips cut at an angle for my formula

gotta go with dual/duals on the T/As. single pipes just look kind of out of place with the wide gaps. Trust me, on tips, the more sublime it is, the better it looks. the SLP dual/duals look great on T/As because they don't draw attention to themselves and complement the car.

B&B triflow or Corsa tips of course look good with anything, as well as some oval tips, such as GMMG, or wider offbrands. chrome Z28 tips might even look good if they fit, that would be a nice combination.

IMHO i wouldnt run any tips at all, A formula is already a good sleeper car but the lack of rear exhaust tips would help that even more.But i think the hooker cat back style would look great if u just gotta have tips.

Those are the same tips I have on my camaro but I'm getting rid of them for the ones from fasttoys



I just don't like tips that you can't see unless you're looking at them from an angle. Something a little more thick is my taste so if anyone wants them PM me!
