Great Gugamuga...

They aren't the worst that I've seen. They're different. Not the best that I've ever seen. Are they 4" or 5"

I'd say find you some nice oval tips.

Personally I think they are a little big - but I also think they look better being round than the rectangular things you see on many f-bodys.

lofl. i suppose long tubes and a different catback are on the list. i might just opt for different tips for now, i was wanting to beef up the drivetrain and suspension before anthing else.

to be honest, they dont bug me to the point where i have to get rid of them. its just what other people think that bugs me.
