I was just wondering what was kind of like the standard for aftermarket exhaust tips? I feel like I've seen a few 3.5" quads out there, but I'm just adding some tips to the end of my stock 535 exhaust, so I'm not sure if the biggest would necessarily be the best. I also have the stock rear with no plans of going quad in the future. I might get the mtech in a year or two but that shouldn't play into this decision.
This was the chart I was going off of, but due to the fact that my car is in the shop, I cannot measure the exact dimensions.
Could anyone shed some light onto this for me?

I'm looking into these (straight cut not pictured) specifically....or maybe them in a titanium finish...

PS---I'm looking for some opinions on the CF exhaust tips. I have never seen them in real life and there are no installed pictures yet (new product). I have a subtle exterior CF theme going on. My car is Deep Sea Blue and I have CF license plate frames, CF ACS style roof spoiler, BLK/CF roundels, and on the inside lots of things are black cf like ebrake, shifter, trim is wrapped, pedals, etc.
I don't want to go toooooo overboard with the CF, but I think I am still in the respectable levels of CF since most are just tiny cosmetic additions...

I'm on titanium 3.5inch tips.

I'm not sure how dual 3.5s would look on a non quad. When I got mine on I kinda thought they were too big, but they have grown on me.

hmm yours look great! I do think 3.5" might be too large. I think i'll prob go with the 80mm...I think i'm gunna go with the CF and see how it holds up....I'll get Titanium if it doesn't work out....thanks everyone
