Default Exhaust tips

Hey all,

What do you think about these exhaust tips? I am getting a new redback 2.5" exhaust fitted soon and I wanted to have twin tips installed.

If you are worried about ease of fitting, you could get this one I have on mine. I got it from ACE for just over $80 i think it was. Its a single pipe that splits into the twin chrome tips, so fits straight onto a 2.5" single exhaust like you are getting.

they look good. IMO too big on an AU unless you had a t3 rear bar. if i went the t3 kit direction, i was gonna put them on my car. just like my old man.

you can get smaller similar sized ones that would look better IMO.

im gonna get some new tips soon. everyone has my ones now lol

Completely hidden ... no need to clean/polish the tip either.
