Default Power hungry EXHAUST TIP (starving) Photos

This is a cheap mod that will leave you power hungry. An $8.58 crome exhaust tip!
I wanted one because every one says "Hey, someone stole your exhaust"! I have the stock crome exhaust tip, so I make them get down on thier knees and look up the rear skirt to see it. Now, no one needs to look up my skirts, see photos:



I know I will be FLAMED for this but I will wait until my original exhaust needs replacing before I replace it. Getto, I know! But dumb chicks love it. Water trickles out of the holes on the bottom where the screws would go, instead of spewing out the pipe. I would use a worm gear clamp to secure it because vibration will loosen the screws provided. O.K., now I am ready for feedback, I have on my flame retartant suit.

I was suprised to read that my stock exhaust will never need replacing! My last car went through a muffeler every two years and I still drive on the same roads. Are you sure about that? I get snow and salt every winter. Are you in the sun belt? Or on another planet? That is good news if true.

I think it looks good. One of the guys here in the shop put a Camry exhaust tip on his box. If fills in the opening on the bumper perfect.

Nothing wrong with just a tip, shoot I have known people with bad a$$ lip kits and the exhaust was stock with jsut a tip for looks. And it looks fine.

^^ Whoa now there's a color

I'm running with just a tip on stock exhaust and I think it's fine. My wife drives the car too so I didn't want it to be too loud on the freeway, but ya gotta put something back there to fill the hole in the lip... The one I have looks like a Borla and was about $15. Can't beat that.
