hey that looks nice and a sweet idea but i have a set of polished Stainless 4th Gen Z28 tips that would look KILLER flush up against the valance with them in the center. The car is more square and would tie in really well with that. Just a suggestion nice 3rd Gen~cole~

Looks nice, but not really into those style tips anymore. How much did it cost you though??? I plan on doing that to my car in the future, but im gonna go with the same tip's my cousin has on his SS. There squared dual tips, that seem to like curl up right behind the bumper. There not those rectangle looking tips though...

It costed me $180 for the pipes, tips, welding etc....

I would have to see a photoshop of those square tips on the car before i could say how i feel about it.

That looks much better man .

Down the road , sumthing like this would be sweet . If u didnt have the ability to do it yourself , fabbing up tips like this would be a bit costly though . If had sumthing different in mind I can PS whatever .

You need a valence or you need to paint everything flat black but the tips to hide the other pipes just dont look right see the pipe under the car.

That looks much better with the pipes painted black. I would curious to see the square Z28 tips on there as well.

I like the idea. There used to be a black z28 in Ft. Walton that had quad tips coming out the back, it actually looked pretty bad ***. They were only 2.5" I believe. I dont think those things go with the rest of the car...the pipes painted black help a lot. But they are large and out of place. I saw a 4th gen rear somewhere on here the other night, and it is missing the CME valence, tips looked cool as hell other than the pipes being so noticeable...no way you could hide them without a valence. And I'd say no to a valence too! So the CME wouldnt really work either...Fast toys has some flat tips that have 3" inlet I believe and are slightly larger than stock...now those would look badass!

Car still looks great, why do you want to sell it?

Those look really good! My C4 Vette has almost exactly the same setup.

i remember seeing that car often. Stock looking black z28 with the quad tips...they hung low, and had all the piping showing...didnt like it on that car much.

I'm not sure on the square tip idea. I like it the way it is right now. Maybe change it out later.

Reason for the car being for sale is because of this divorce i am going threw. I am getting left with some debt that is absolutely taking a toll on me without her financial support. And i own the Camaro outright, and it the only thing that is worth money that i have right now.

Damn, that's not a bad price at all. I was expecting around 300 or so. Ill try and take some picture's of my cousin's tip's sometime. He doesnt have em centered like you do, but he's got 4 tip's total. I like the look of em, it's different from all the other Camaro's ive seen around here. Most seem to have the rectangle looking tip's.

I like it, I think it would look better with some sort of valance though. Awesome.

Looks good, but I like the photoshop that LT4 Vert did. It looks better (IMO) with the square tips.
