Default My new exhaust tips....

Just got my new exhaust installed this morning, here's 2 pics of my new tips. I was a lil worried at 1st, wasnt sure just how it would look with these tips but im actually happy and like how it turned out. I know some of you wont like it but its okk. It's different & i can always swap them out for Corsa's later on in the future....

I'm feeling kinda neutral about them. They look decent, and they're different. It's nice seeing something besides Corsa clones every once in a while .

I got them from MufflerMall.com & i believe Silverline has these exact tips as well but at a higher price. Well atleast a local exhaust shop charged me $65 each for them to order these from Silverline, while MufflerMall has them at $32.40

There's small little openings at the bottom of the tips that will allow the water to run out.
