I think they look a little odd. I think the dual outlet style tips look much much better

mecham tips are great looking IMO but I agree on quality being of issue. My first set of tips...the chrome bumbled and came off on the lip. After speaking with them, I was told to get the tips off to send them back to be rechromed. I thought that was kind of ridiculous and I should have just got sent new tips. If the ones I have now do the same I'm not going with the same ones again.

Here is a picture of my old one. You can't really go wrong with these or the corsa's (clones as well) In my opinion.

I didnt have any problems with the quality of mine and had them for about 3-4 years. But have heard of problems with other mecham products.
