Tips should be round! Exhaust gasses don't liked to be squeezed so as to look cool!

I would think that fake / non-functional exhausttips are Honda Civic-ish :thumbsdown:

Is that AMG-style?..... that sets my Merc appreciation even further down.

+1 on powdercoated black tips!

and +1 on getting a decent exhaust instead of just tips..........................

DON'T CIVIC A SIXER

Joe dont get me wrong, they do look nice and if you like them, then go for it. I was just my personal opinion, no bashing intended
