Im getting a dual exhaust extended soon and i want to get some tips so i can get it all done at once. I really like a MB 55 AMG series tips with the 2 ovals on each side. If you know where i can get those (or that style) besidres $100 each at the MB dealer then let me know. Show me some good ones also, maybe ill like something else, include its brand name and where u got it from + price.

 

one thing about the oval shape is that it may look funny in the roundish opening if the oval width isn't close to the circle diameter...

 

well that made me think, so i went out to the car and checked, and the opening is actually a little more ovalish (is that a word??) than i thought.

 

so anyone? it doesnt have to be those mentioned above, show urs also.

 

I think any dual tip set up will look good on a 4th gen, as long as it's not two 5" tips. As for the bumper hole, just make a template and make it a bit wider to fit whatever you buy.

 

Magnaflow has a good selection of SS tips. OBX does too, but they look expensive.

 

if they look expensive then thats good, if they are expensive then thats not too good. Whats a good average price on a tip anyway?

 

Recently I've also been thinking about this. For a few years now I've had the 2000 SE muffler with the chrome oval tip on my car, and I've been thinking I wanted to change the look a little. I was thinking to remove the OEM chrome oval tip and install a pair of nice aftermarket tips. Most important, doing this should not alter my exhaust tone since I'm just removing/replacing an external piece.

So what are some of the tips I've been looking at? IMO a roll lip looks so much better in certain application (more on that later) compared to a straight lip. So I'm stuck with either installing a pair round or ovalish tips. I've decided to go with the sqaurish tips, something like this



My only problem is finding a pair of tips like this small enough to slip over the 2000 OEM muffler exhaust tips

Visiting your local rice shops (PepBoys, AutoZone all included as rice) will give you a varity of tips to choose from at a reasonable price

Back to certain applications. Since you're planning on installing a dual exhaust and you stated you like the MB AMG with the two ovals on each side, IMO that would look to "busy" on a mid size car. Especially if the AMG has rolled lips like the one I posted.

A single tip on both sides would look sweet and would match a mid size car better compared to two tips on both sides. Something like this

I dont know, 2004 maxima has 4 tips. Im not into the square but might get 2 single tip ovals or rounds at 2.5 or 3". Magnaflow or OBX, how much would those tips run me? Whats a reasonable price for a tip? Also like you said, i dont want any change in tone/noise.

 

I installed these oval magnaflows.
