Well those are $42 a piece so you'd end up spending $84 + shipping. It will be tough to find some nice looking tips for under $60. You might look around on ebay some, I found some nice stainless steel double walled tips for $70 brand new.

I bought it off of someone on here and he didn't include the tips. I'm having a big problem finding which one to get, i'm afraid i won't like it. I personally like the single wall non rolled edge. Forgetting price how do you guys think those gibson ones look?

If those are the kind of tips you like, you could get some off a flowmaster or magnaflow for very cheap on here.

for the love of god i just can't get the right tips. i got the ones in the link installed today and they look absolutely ****. for one, they are too long because on the right tailpipe the pipe curves so i can't push the tip back very far so it sticks out. and they are too big, i didn't realize 3.5" looks that big. this is the second set of tips that look absolutely like ****. someone help me.

see what i mean. i just can't figure what is making it look like **** so much. i don't think the camaro likes the rounded edge. especially on the 3.5" outlet. i think a non rolled edge 3" outlet would be much more suitable.....maybe...help me out guys lol this is pissing me off

Tips on Camaros looks like ... Unless its a CME. I'd just cut the cat back off before the axle or put turndowns on instead of tips but thats just me.

dude go to autozone. They have some quad tips that looks just like Corsa's. 40$ a piece. Just go to where the tips and exhaust stuff is and youll find them. That's what I would get if I didn't have dumped td's.
