Default Exhaust tail pipes

Looking to see plain old setups like the one one this car. Any forth gen. Just curious of the thoughts of it vs getting something that shows some leg.

You mean just turn down showing or more of a hide away style turn down? It's not a huge deal but my new muffler shop suggested running them all the way to the back so the made up some bends to go over the axle and out the back but they slapped two long a$$ tail pipes on the back (non stainless). I didnt actually see the whole thing but I caught a peak from a distance at an angle. I can only imagine ><. Might just have it tucked. I was told its better then my under axle dumps due to police issues.. not that aI had a problem before. Anywho. Any pics of plain old rear exiting pipes?

I had a jegs catback that had plain pipe no tips, but for some reason my photobucket pictures and video of it are corrupted and I can't view them. I'll look and see if I can find them on my computer.

I don't have them on my car now, but I've got a set of raw pipes that hook up to my duals and run out the back so I can pass inspection. It looks like absolute ***.

I have turn-downs on my '94 Z28. I like them. They tuck up under the rear bumper nicely for a pretty clean look.

Here ya go. Jegs catback. They need to be angled up a tad but not much IMO. Cant tell by the pic but they dont go passed the bottom of the bumper.

I don't know if my shop just forgot that my car is a street car as well as a track car but wow, would be an understatement. Though it didn't help that my valance was falling off. But I think this exhaust issue is something I shall fix in the future. I wasn't very specific about my exhaust setup as I just wanted it run better. The install is very nice minus the fact I think one pipe my be at an angle due to the fuel tank.

That is exactly what I was looking for. Mine right now are tucked up pretty high but I think mine run past the bumper. I'm not going to complain right now. I can deal with that. Maybe people will still think its a v6 ( ha fat chance )
Thanx for the the pic tho, puts my mind at ease considering I couldn't get a very good look at my setup.
