Default Fancy new muffler tips!

I had my muffler tips replaced. The old ones looked like something PeeWee Herman would have on his C4. I got some doublewalled slash cut ones that look much more appropriate. I like it a loooot better.

How much welding did you have to do?

Are they welded into position!

Looks great! If I ever mod my '93's exhaust, I would do something similiar, muffler elims plus aftermarket tips.

I'm kind of leery however, I don't know an exhaust shop I trust enough, I'm sure if the angle is just a little off when they're welded they won't look right.
