If you go with a replica valance and replica tips that look exactly like the SLP tips, you could get the setup for about $600.
$300 for Klumzyee's valance.
$300-350 for CME tips from eworldsales or something like that. Paint could be another $150-200 depending on shop.
There are good deals that come along but you have to be patient. I'd keep the loudmouth unless you want to go some other route and just sell the tips on here or ebay. Do that and don't buy anything else for your car for about a month and you'll have the money quick. LOL
You're talking $750-800 complete minus what you sell your tips for. I'm sure you can make an offer to the ebay seller about their tips. I've heard about them taking offers of $250 for there tips.

their is no such thing as replica cme tips, beside the pos ebay ones that were made in some rednecks garage, which dont nearly make the cut in person. on camera they arent bad but up close i thing i could of made better with no knowledge of stainless bending welding or fabricating.

From my understanding and from looking at pics of some CME tips sold on ebay through eworldsales1, they seem to be reproduced. Yes they look exactly the same, but they do have problems and the weld jobs on the bars aren't that great. Either they are reproduced or they are refurbished tips.

Here's what I payed for my CME. I converted my magnaflow cat back to CME.
Valence: $99 (Original SLP valence) Got it when SLP was rid of there reaming stock.
Tips: $200 (Ebay CME tips. Did not want to spend $500 for a set banged up CME tips)
Paint: $120
Exhaust bends and welding at exhaust shop: $100
Grand Total $519

I owned a set of the ebay tips that I never put on the car. IMHO the craftsmanship on them was very good. Yes they have no lip but again they were built well.
