Show me your tips!!
I have the muffler elims with after market LT1 style tips. The paint does not hold up well. Its time to get some new tips. The wife wants some chrome tips, I can't decide what to go with.
So, post some pics and what kind of tips you have. I don't really want to spend the $$ for a whole system, plus it sounds great without the mufflers. TIA!!

I have a TPIS cat-back with black painted LT1 style tips; they can be seen in the Carlisle photos on my site.
If you want shiny tips go with polished SS instead of chrome; the SS can be easily buffed to like new over time and won't rust or chip like chrome, plus IMHO they look better than chrome.

Re: Show me your tips!! (RED-85-Z51)
Im not really worried about the red inside. but I chose the round instead of the ZR1 because I have round tail lights and it compliments and sort of matches. If I had the square lights I would have gone ZR1.
:yesnod:
Sound Great :yesnod:
Ive got these, but ZR1 Square tips. They are sweet...The red inside is nice until you run the engine, at which point it burns off... :mad .
