Default Need quick advice! Corsa clones or Pypes ovals. ..That is the question!

I have a used GMMG that should be arriving tomorrow for my TRANS AM and then I will be installing it this saturday. the system came without tips and I am debating one whether I should get Corsa clones or Pypes ovals. Here are the two:

Pypes : I like that they resemble GMMG tips and they seem to be pretty rare.

Corsa clones: I think these are awesome looking, but they are becoming so dang common.

Let me know which one you guys think I should go with for my Trans Am. JUST SO YOU KNOW: My car is red, but I plan to paint in gunmetal gray one day...if that makes any difference.

I've always been a fan of dual-dual, so, corsa clones.

I like the oval Pypes look. I had Corsa on my old VW bug and whenever I see them, that's what I think of. But it sounds like you asked a question that you already know the answer to. So go with what you want.

seems like most people like the clones. i do like the look of the pypes a lot too....they are two very different tips. i actually already ordered a set of clones on ebay for around 105 (brand new/shipped) i didnt even bid i just did the buy now option since i need them pronto. they are 3.5 inch outlets by 2.5 inch inlets. just so everyone knows, the customer service of Pypes is tremendous and i appreciate their help. (you can get their ovals for $65 + shipping on their ebay store)

I've always liked Corsa tips myself so that's my vote.

Corsas.


I know everyone wants to be unique with their cars and such, but c'mon man, they're just exhaust pipes, not wheels. Don't discount the corsas just because they're common, I think thats nonsense. Dual tips look fantastic, plain and simple, common or not.

Corsa clones. I never really cared for tips that aren't circular.
