I think they are too far out...what do you guys think? I told the guy that welded em ( only 10$) they were and he said something about you dont want em any further back because the exhaust will get on the back bumper..i havent had any tips for like 8 months and havent had any problems..

you should have them raise them up to your bumper that way they dont look like there "just there" you know what im saying, it will help your *** flow better too. Cant wait to put mine on, but i cant really find a place that's affordable, some place was asking $75, seriously that's rediculous

yea youre lucky dude, i got my tips for free though so...i win. But yea gotta have connections. I would have him redo them, not trying to be pessimistic just saying if you want to have a "rear" that makes you happy than do it right and have them weld the tips come out from the bumper like an inch and a half or so, you know where just a little bit of the tip is past the bumper.
