Default Ap2 Tips before and After

Not a bad upgrade for $50.00 very easy install just slide the old ones off and mount new ones. You will need to buy slightly longer set screws.

I think they look clean and look oem on the car. Theres room for adjustment aswell

Cars needs a wash and iphone camera but you guys get the idea

Ya your body kit has huge exhaust openings. You may want to look at doing twin ovals on each side it would balance out better.

I copy and pasted the extra pipes for you

Lol looks nice with dual, but that's actually not an opening the kit is like the one picture but I had my inserts done matte black, instead of the color that's in this picture. Sorry I took this with my iPhone so it is not that clear. Looks better in person.
