I think the Corsa's look good, but its really easy to make them not look good by having them sticking out way too far like in a few of those pictures above. The thing I don't like about the Mecham tips is that you can see where the oval part turns into the 2 1/2 inch pipe and it looks like crap IMO.

Yup, I'm sure. I like the Mechams better. The Corsa's are nice but I'm not a big fan of dual/dual tips.

IMO the Mecham tips are the best looking/fitting tips for the T/A.

As far as quality, mine have been on the car since 98 when it was bought new and they still look new, they are high quality.
