Do the real Corsa muffler/exhaust tips have an offset to them? I am considering ordering the tips in the link below to install on my muffler elim. Are these the same? It is a little difficult to tell when they are not on the car.

Thanks

The tips are individual pipes to the muffler and don't have an offset.

I am not sure what you mean by "offset."

If you look at the mufflers from the top or bottom, the pipe leading to the outer tip is longer than the inner.... and there is a bend.

OK, thats what I thought I saw in some pictures but wasn't sure. I guess I will keep looking. Those must be for a firebird. They probably will not look as good.

Thanks

Edit: I forgot that Corsa tips come straight out of the muffler with two pieces from each muffler. Those tips sure look close though, except for the offset.

I just don't know what constitutes a 'tip' in Corsa speak. Is it the pipe, or just the polished SS tip?

I think he is referring to the tip itself and not necessarily the pipe. The ones shown in the link are each a different length from the muffler
(the pipes connecting to the tips).
