just so you guys know the center round piece in the tip is only about 1.5 inches in depth... it's purley for looks... it does NOT go all the way back to the inlet on the tip. The pictures don't really show that...

And yea... they would be welded on... f#ck those bolts

I'm not saying I would even do these guys... i probably won't... but just saw them at auto zone and figured i'd share...

the price is good and it makes for a cheap alternative to spending $300 in tips...

Go down a few more exhaust tips and you will find the ones I purchased. Dual Outlet Rolled tips. I had the Corsa Knock-off's and I sold them because they were too small for me. These tips from Autozone are beefy and fill up the gaps just the way I want them too. I purchased them about 6 months ago and they held up better than the Corsa Knock-offs. They are stainless steel and pretty much a good bang for buck tip. There are a few members on here that run them also, and that's where I got the nerve to go out and purchase them myself. Here's one pic:


Here is a few more taken from a member at MFBA.org at a car show we went to.

The only problem with them is that the inlet is 2.25" and my tail pipes are 2.5".
I like the look- similar to B&B's tips. Do you think that an exhaust shop could expand the inlet?

They are more circular than oval to me but they do have a slight oval shape to them. Yes, they look very much like B&B Tips.

My mechanic (Formula WS6) didn't have a problem with the tips. Neither should any other welder.

I like 'em if you cut out the center pipes somehow. Maybe if you just paint the inners black?

I don't, sorry. But trust me, I am extremely happy with these and if you like the Mecham tips, you should jump on those tips. The quality is there, trust me.

I have the Autozone oval tips on my WS6. I had previously cut the stock tips off and installed SLP dual dual tips. These are tucked back fairly far. I just screwed them on. IMO they look nicer than the stock tips. If I replace the exhaust I'll probably get some tips from PYPES exhaust.
