Crappy cell phone pic, but its the best I've got:



I HATE the way it looks with no tips. I'm eventually gonna have the exhaust run all the way out the back, I've just got way too much other stuff to do first.

Just hang some fake tips..

Make them look clean/tiddy, and no one will know better.

Yea, until he cranks it up and dust comes flying out from under the car. Then people will be like "Ummmm why do you have tips on there then if they dont work?" "Same reason a mustang has a hood scoop"

I thought about doing that, but I think that would look goofy too, since you can still see the dumps from behind the car.

I have mine done like that and it drives me nuts. You can see the dumps from behind the car. I'm going to do something about it before too much longer. I may run cutouts right after the mufflers then tailpipes. My car isn't lowered yet but I'd imagine you'd still be able to see them even if it was lowered.
