Default Correct fitting exhaust tips?

The SS w/optional ground effects kit has compound rectangles and the tips are round....what does everyone think of these? Anyone else seen any that fit?

I think they look better, but could maybe be angled a little more to follow the curve of the rear. Still a much better looking tip for the gfx package IMHO.

They look much better, but I still think the ground effects package is the ugliest thing you could possibly do to a Camaro. The effects package as a whole looks absolutely horrible, the rear being the worst part.

I like the factory round for some reason, I have put the ground effect package on them and cutting the factory tips of will make a tear fall from your eye.
