When I seen the l tuned tips for sale for $130.00 I thought to myself "Hey I had those on my old car and I only paid 24.99 a piece from pepboys" The are 4" thick walled tips. I had them welded on my old car onto the borla exhaust. Looks good.

Looks really good Pete!

That "tab" thing if for a safety check sticker. The great state of Hawaii makes you get a safety check every year to make sure you're car is safe on the street (i.e. blinkers work, horn is good, tint, etc.). Most people don't like to put them on the bumper so they buy a bracket.

Dennis -

Thanks....yah...fills the cutout really well. Also...great explanation on the safety sticker bracket. Thinking about removing it and slapping it back on the bumper.
