Default New Exhaust (tips) Installed w/Pix
I have never intended to make this car faster because I already have cars for that so an aftermarket exhaust was not on the top of my list. However, the factory tips just did not cut it. I went with the Borla tips like some other members have used and very happy with the look

Sorry for the poor quality pics, but light was failing by the time I got home.

I took one, but it came out blurry. I will take some better pics in the daylight and get a straight on shot from the rear.

New exhaust tips look 100x better than the stock tips.

What is the model number for those tips and where did you get them from? I have been looking for a nice set.

Thanks for the compliments guys!!! Yeah, the stockers just made the back of the car look weird I think it matches the overall look of the car without going overboard.

It is a JDM Blick replica off e-bay.

They are Borla model# 20155 and I got them from streetsideauto.com for $115 shipped.
