Default !Exhaust Tips

I'm thinking about going to true duals and to make it easy on myself, I want to dump it before the rear axle.

I know it's going to be loud and have a plan to get around that but what does a Camaro (preferably with the Y3F package) look like without exhaust tips?

That's one of the things I like about Camaros. You can go either way and it still looks badass! That said, I still prefer tips… especially if they're Corsas. (Pic ***** Alert!)

Tips are the way to go. Look at the pic above. If you go with true duals you will have ugly *** rattail tips in the center of your car which are still visible

The Y3F package is the sport appearance package. Most people don't like it but I do for some reason.

I think that with the rear valance from the appearance package, you won't be able to see the exhaust underneath the car as well as you would on a non Y3F car.

Thanks for the input guys, I think I'll go without the tips.

If that doesn't work out, I can always add them later.

They're the Premium tips, 3.5" (I believe).

FWIW, the only true dual set-up I've seen that I like, asthetically speaking, is the "over-the-axel" dump. Looks way better than having something visible underneath the diff.
