Talking New Exhaust Tip!
Hey guys, got a new exhaust tip this morning...it looks sooo much better then the other tip i had on as this one is now thicker and 3" instead of whatever the other one was and it sits a lot nicer in the bumper and doesn't stick out nowhere near as much. What you all think?

Cheers!

Brent.

Ja, that looks heaps better. The before pics look like there isn't a tip at all, just two pieces of pipe.

$150 seems a bit of a ripoff. My local exhaust shop only charges for the tip and cuts the old one off and welds the new one on for free! Im guessing you paid less than $100 for the tip that means about $50 bucks for labour for a 5 - 10 job. Other than that it looks sweet! _2:
