Default Magnaflow exaust with different tips

Guys,

I just bought the magnaflow catback exhaust system. I haven't received it, so needless to say I haven't got it installed yet. However, I wanted to know that if I don't like the way the tips that come with the system look, can I put new tips on the system?

I like the look of the SLP dual/dual tips, would those fit in place of the magnaflow tips?

Does anyone her have the magnaflow catback with different tips? if so, pleas epost pics so I can get some ideas.

thanks

A muffler shop can do just about anything you want. I have the CME coming out of my Magnaflow. (sorry, no pics at this time) =)

you see the stock crushed over axle pipe, vs the 3" mandrel bent one that comes with the magnaflow kit.

I just put this exhaust on my car two weeks ago and was surprised by how good the tips looked.

i am in the opposite dilemma... I would like to run my Magnaflow tips with a GMMG muffler instead! The magnaflow tips, in my opinion, are the most beautiful tips available for our cars...

I originally was going for the dual/dual tip look, but I came across a deal on my Magnaflow cat-back for $330 delivered After having it installed, not only do I love the sound, but the tips look sweet!
