Default Exhaust tips

I am pleased with the sound of the exhaust on my '22 2LT but would love some round black tips (sounds kinda weird). Any of you just replace the tips alone? Would appreciate any input/suggestions. Many thanks.

I am the opposite thought…would love aftermarket cat back exhaust to have black square exhaust tips like the factory ones in my car.

Great selection on eBay.

Went with a 4.5" set a few years back that look and fit better than the regular 4". Do it right and remove the bumper.

I would bet you can find a set of tips like you want and have a muffler shop cut the old ones off and weld on the new ones. If you go for it, post up some pics.

check out you tube video Brian Rhoades C8 Exhaust tips install
I used this video to remove my stock stainless exhaust tips and install round black carbon fiber tips. The video was excellent and I did not have to remove the bumper. The only issue it took me longer than 3 minutes to cut off each tip

Best of luck
