Default S2000 AP2 Exhaust Tips

I am looking to change the exhaust tips on my '08 GS350. I want to keep the stock exhaust as I am in medical sales, and need to take out clients in my car, & for the limited performance improvement, I can't justify the noise. I would however like a more aggressive look & I have checked out a number of the exhaust tip threads.

I keep seeing references to the AP2 S2000 tips looking good on the 3GS, but nobody has ever posted a picture. There are a few on the IS forum, but I can't really tell how they would look on a 3GS from those pics.

Additionally, I like the Lexus JDM oval tips, but can't seem to find them for sale anywhere or a picture of them installed.

Can anybody post a picture of the AP2 or the JDM tips on a 3GS?

THANKS

Hahaha... true true

Do you think 5" oval tips with black insides would look good... or too big. They will almost fill the cutouts.

They are there... Look further on the thread. They look really nice. Oval tips are the way to go.

That looks SICK! I think that is definitely the look I am going for... Are those the AP2's? Also, can those tips be pushed back any farther? From the pic it looks like they stick out more than the stock tips, and I am looking for more of a stock look. I want it to look like the car just came with larger exhaust outlets.
