We did this a few months ago, when weather was nice outside, just imagine the kinds of things we do in the winter.

I would shorten them up a bit and paint them black or same color as the body.

Not bad but, personally, I'd like them better with an angle-cut.

You could go bigger.

I hate to admit it but I helped my son put an exhaust on his Subaru that has a 4.25" exhaust tip. Since it's a flat 4 it's loud but doesn't have the typical Ricer drone.
