Default New exhaust tips

I had some new exhaust tips custom made and just got them back after being ceramic coated. I just wanted something that looked like the stock tips only slightly larger but couldn't find any aftermarket ones that kept the rolled lip look and the same 15 degree angle cut.

Haven't installed yet because probably going to grab an aftermarket muffler delete soon.

What center bypass are you thinking of going with? I just did the RSS a few weeks ago and it sounds AMAZING. However, the RSS comes w/ tips that are part of the center bypass pipes.

Stock I believe is 3in and these are 3.5in.

I really like their piece and because they're local to me would have gone that route but not a huge fan of the tips it came with so probably go with sharkwerks.

The metalshop I use is Unique Fabrications who do some of GMG's metal work like their exhausts and rollcages. I simply bought some tips from Summit racing that matched the diameter, angle, and rolled look that I wanted and had the shop cut and weld them. The backing plate was easy enough for them since they had some stock tips in the shop already to use as a template.
I don't know who they use for ceramic coating but I assume it is someone local to them and can ask.

The tips from Summit racing were not much, maybe $20 each and total cost was still under $325. If people are interested I can see if they are willing to make a few more sets perhaps at a groupbuy price.
