I read a thread somewhere regarding someone who changed just the tips on their standard exhaust.
The thing is I am more than happy with the sound of the standard exhaust. I just wouldnt mind the tailpipes filling the cut outs more.
I can't remember whether I read it on this forum or another.
Can anyone assist?
I am sure they said that the tailpipe trim would just bolt on, so they could go back to standard if need be.

It was me check the link out below. You have to have them cut off and the new ones welded on it's a real bitch of a job it also deletes the flapper.

Hope this helps...

Thanks Nigp007 for the link
I will visit a local custom exhaust place and see what they can do.
