Default C-5 Tail pipe extensions
I got to the point with my C-5 Base model that iam real tired of looking at those factory oval shape extensions. There showing tgeir age anyway. So what's the top choices for replacement type, anything but factory. Assume removing oval jobs then still needing to cut some pipe since tail pipe is oval for a few more inches IDEAS?

classic round tips and a lighter, better sounding exhaust.

Magnaflow sells a variety of exhaust tip options, and they’re not crazy expensive.
