I prefer Oval





However, if I had to choose another for a T/A, I'd get a set of B+B Tri-Flow quad tips and tuck them in as best I could

I think the red car because its diffrent then most and it fits the body. The White one looks stock to me. The tips on the red car look like their off an M3.

Here's my new setup. Thought I'd try something new, 4.5" Slashcut tips from MEGS. I have two other sets of tips lying around. The ovals didn't do it for me, the shitty Hooker dual/duals didn't cut it either.

So here are two quick pics I just snapped in some pretty bad lighting. They don't really give you the full effect, but everyone so far as been all about them.





These are my favorite so far, and they look good. So my vote is to switch to a style similar to mine/the white TA. The hooker tips straight up suck. Like someone said above, from the side they look allright. From behind they look cheap, and they are.

hooker tips suck, i had them on my car before and didn't like them because they don't have a rolled lip.

Red looks better, but it is swayed due to the red car's sticking out too far.

Knock off Corsa's if budget is no limit. Being a little smaller they look very nice on birds.

Red no competition! I'm bias. They stick out to much for my taste though.

I think TA's must have dual tips to look good! I like the Corsa tips too. I don't like the Borla tips though. My car came with a flowmaster and some long chrome 3" rolled tips. I liked the sound and they looked okay, but I had to have dual tips.

Tips like the red car but rolled. Not a big fan of the Corsa knock off's. They look too small to me.
