Default B&B

i've been deciding on which exhaust tips to look best because i think my loudmouth dual/duals are ugly and i think i've come to the conclusion of either mecham or B&B triflow 4.5' twin ovals and was wondering if anyone knows where i can find them because upon looking at B&B's site i couldnt find a price or a way to buy them so if anyone knows where i could find those tips or the mecham 4" oval tips and the price it would be greatly appriciated

Your best bet would be to email B&B and see if they cant sell you the tips outright w/o an entire exhaust system. Or, go to your local exhaust shop and see what they cant do about getting you those, or similar tips.

Mechams oval tips are $79 for either the 6" or 7 1/2" versions. They're ment to fit 3" OD pipes, so just remember that in case you dont have a 3" system.

I don't believe you can buy the B&B tips by themselves. Unless they have changed.

I agree. I think the B&B exhaust tips do look awesome, if not the best looking tips for our cars! ...but then again I may be biased...

heres my Formula WS6 with the B&B quad tips...

I put B&B tips on my LT1's exhaust because I think they look the best plus they filled in the openings from the WW gfx perfectly. I called the company but they don't sell the tips by themselves so I bought a set used off a member from here but they'd show up on eBay every now and then as well.

I have a pair of used B&B tips that I was going to put back on my car (Hooker dual tips on there now).

I'm pretty sure I want the B&B back on my car, but out of curiosity... how much money?

If I had the stock tips I'd gladly sell 'em to ya lol. But my B&B setup has Ractive tips on it. They're similar to the Mecham's altho they arent nearly as wide, and they cost less (Ive seen them for as cheap as $35, but normally they're like $40-50).

Werde brotha. You had a pretty good view for most of the time down HW70 this weekend too Altho it wasnt like we were racing to begin with...

And yeah, it is hard. If I wanted tips, I'd be hard pressed not to go w/ the Corsa premiums tho. Those to me are on either brand of Fbody. But as ive said, once I get true duals she'll be tip-less

you can go ahead and count out the mecham tips cause the lm exhaust has 2.5 tailpipes.
