New Exhaust tip how they look?
Wasn't sure about them it was the stock look before so it will take some getting use to sound good though.

Look good but they would look much better if they were flush with the bumper or even a little tucked under. Thirdgens look goofy with the tips sticking out.

They are only a half inch away from the bumper wich I though was pretty close don't want to burn it and they only stick out 2 inches. you got to be able to see them. They are Stainless and say magnaflow on them.

small pics on here, but you can see they don't stick out that much.

I agree that they need either to be tucked under further or use slash cut tips to make the contour of the cars body.
Just my opinion.

Two things are true about Thierdgen exhaust systems:
1. If they can;t hear you before they see you...whats the point?
2. There are some things that should be heard and not seen......

I wouldn't change anything, they look sweet! If I understand correctly u just put/ changed tips correct? I love that look, i think it makes it look mean IMO.

i think it's just the angle in that picture but i would have them brought up as two inches from the bumper is pretty far and if they really do stick out that much they would look much nicer tucked in just a bit. all in all the car looks nice though.
what size are they?

Hell yea jesse james right there if you cant hear it before you see it then whats the point. I live by that. Nah though leave them where they are they look awesome. I'm a bigger fan of the slash cut tips but those look real nice. Did they really make it louder i thought mine did and they're only 12" long 4" diameter.

Car looks great, but the tips would look better tucked underneath. In one of the pics they look like they could really hurt your ankles!
Personally I think all 3rd gen and 4th gen Trans Am's look MUCH better with quad tips. But that just MHO of course.

Yep, that car is gorgeous! But I like the exhaust on the 3rd gen cars back original style, practically invisible.
That is contributing to my indecision on exhaust setup for my car too.
