Default Would these tailpipes work?




I'm looking to replace the monster tips on my magnaflow catback with some turn downs for a clean bumper look. I found these 2.5" dynomax tailpipes for 3rd gens on summit, was wondering if they would tuck up under a 4th gen. I know I'd probably have to weld some hangers on but that's no big deal.

What do you guys think?

Wow that's exactly what I been looking to do I was gonna cut the cannon off the elbow and weld on turndowns but that looks alot cleaner. Are they stainless? I can't tell on my iPhone.

Nah they aren't stainless

I'm actually thinking about ditching the magnaflow muffler and throwing on a single in/out with a turn down. Ahh I can't make up my mind.

I cut my existing tailpipes off at the muff, had them rotated up, then dumped. They are totally hidden from behind.

If you're concerned about flow you could weld a couple of mandrel 90's for turndowns. I just had end of the pipes bent down because I'm running an e-cutout when I'm corncerned about power. I just wanted visual and quiet stealth. I was going for the sleeper look with no badging or big pipes hanging off the back. I'm too old to be getting harassed by the cops. Not a whole lot of work, really.
