Default Exhaust Eye Soar

Hey Everyone,
I am seriously concidering purchasing the quad tip B&B Bullet system. My concern is isn't the noise but how far the tips stick out the back. I have never seen the system up close and was wondering if anyone has angled shots around the rear of their car(w/ B&B BULLETS)?

Thank You

Man I had the same concerns when I was putting my exhaust. I just hate it if the exhaust tips stick out more than half an inch. I could not find any exhaust that would not stick out atleast an inch and a half. To a lot of people it does not matter. To fit the exhaust tips just right, I went with an X pipe and that can give you control over how far you want your tips out. Just test fit underneath of your factory H pipe and cut your H pipe and slide the X pipe over the pipes coming after cats. I think that is the only way to have your exhaust tips where you want them. Hope it makes sense

That's one of my pet peeves about most of the aftermarket systems. I'm not too fond of how far the tips stick out. My Magnaflows and then Borlas stuck out a bit far for my tastes although the tips were nice. I was very happy with the Ti's when I finally switched to those.
