Default best tips for a firebird/formula. post pics

i have stock flows right now. i hate it. see it everywhere. when i do my motor swap i want to get a different set of tips.

i like:

-corsa (knock offs or premiums both look really good) only problem is i haven't seen them on many firebird/formula cars
-B&B - i've seen one car with the B&B tips...looked a big large for the back but still look damn good. these are my favorite tips for camaros.
-hooker - even though i'm getting Hooker LTs and ORY, i think the tips are just too plain looking

any other ideas?

post up pics if you got em!

I have Megs stainless tips from jegs. I wanted a big tip, so I bought the same ones I have on my S10 $45 each. They're 4". You can buy them in oval, and straight cut

i will, dont think their gonna make ur exhaust sound like mine tho.....lol
j/k
also, ya might be better off ordering the tips since my have been converted to 3" inlet. im pretty sure urs is only 2.5" pipe. the tips come with a 2.5" inlet new and ya can get em for about 100$ shiped.
also, if u change ur mind and want the gmmg's ill have them shortly.
