Default Stock Exhaust Tips (2001) replacement

I have stock exhaust (2001), do not like the stock tips. They do not protrude enough from under the body. I do not want to replace the entire exhaust – just visually enhance the tips. Want something bold and shiny that stands out. Recommendations?

Also – if I have to remove the stock tips, are they welded (need to be cut off), or are they clip ons?

They have some clip on ones that also screw on. I have these, got them from Ebay. They are Stainless.

Take a look at vendors like Mid-America or Ecklers. They have a selection of bolt on/clip on tips that actually look pretty good.

Be careful what tips you order. Most are for 99 thru 2000. They did not come with chrome tips. Most will not fit on later model C5's.
