Default Twin Exhaust tips

Hey All,

Well its time to replace the horrible exhaust tip on my XR6, now my question is would one of these fit?

just go down to any exhaust shop.

More like around $90...and they are not stainless either, but look like factory type.

The tips you show are to fit a 2 1/2" exhaust. The if you have a standard exhaust it is 2 1/4" so you will need to get the pipe flared.

I've recently fitted these (about $90-not stainless-diamond brand)

They were fitted to my 2 1/2" sports system, but that was a disaster so the stock system went back on. My stock after market system is 2 1/4" but from the diff back goes to 2 1/2" so I was able to re-use the tips. I got burned by the last exhaust shop so I did it myself. I used a couple of rivets the position the tip on the car, then removed the rear section, tack welded, removed rivets and fully weld it on. Magic! But i've got an IRS rear end so the exhaust is easily removed.

If you go for stainless rather than chrome expect to pay around $115-125.
You can get them slightly offset, to match the lines of the bumper, or so that the two are the same length, if that makes sense. The offset ones are like myself and HLC have. AU2falcons above seems to have the straight across ones.

I have recently put on stainless steel twin tips on my XR6, they are actually angled down, IMO they look fine, cost me $85.00 when I got the 2 1/2" zorst put on. They were more expensive if I chose to buy them without the zorst..I think $115.00.
