I think the Corsa and the Dual/Dual tips look the best.

CME first, Corsa second, dumped duals third. My next exhaust will be boomtubes out the passenger side...until it's ready for a fat down pipe. Will I ever be satisfied?

The stock SS tips look good for a sleeper too.
Not too fond of the Magnaflow tips. They look like they belong on a truck, they are 20" long. HAHAHA!!! I had they on my Z28 when i got it. I changed out to the stock SS base tips. Loved those ALOT more. Now i'm fond of the dual/dual SS tips.

The stock SS tips are hideous! They are like 2" big. They look like they came stock on a honda accord.

The best tips for an SS is no tips at all. My car looks so much better with dumped duals.
But if you have to have tips i would get corsa tips or corsa clones

Forgot, I also had TDs under the axle with the 3.5" single outlet dual wall magnaflow tips. They were angled up just a bit and from the rear you could clearly see the big 3" pipes coming around differential. Looked mean as hell.

check my thread out. these are off a c6 vette. they should slip right over the pipe on your SS after you cut them. i think they look great and you cant beat them for the price.

however, i would rather have a factory CME.

EDIT: i have a set of SLP dual/dual tips that came off my LM2 for sale. if your interested shoot me a PM. they are a little scrapped though. so, ill let them for fairly cheap.

I like the Corsa, Magnaflow, GMMG and B&B Tips. Anything stainless that looks clean is OK in my book. However I have dumps so I can't really help you. Polishing the stock Z28 tips wouldn't look too bad either. I can't stand the center mount exhaust. Just doesn't look right in my opinion.

CME duals would be my first choice but good luck finding them without selling some body parts. I have the dual/dual tips which I don't really care for but the slash cut 3" tips would be my second choice.

I love my stock tips. The stock tips are simple and clean, just like the Camaro SS. They are not sleeper either, cuz I'm kickin butt all night long and people know it.

I think the dual/dual tips look lame, and the factory SS tips are too big for me. CME is alright, but I don't like the rear bumper ground effects for it. I've got some LM1 tips now, but if I'm bored come winter I might hack them off and go dumped. I also like the long tips, but seem to be a minority.

I love the look of the Dual/Dual tips on my car, but I also think the Corsa dual tips look kickass!!
