I think any aftermarket exhaust tips would need a proper shroud made to hide the empty space sorta like what the stock setup does with the black mesh grill. This gives it a finished look. If you just leave it open it looks like a hack job.

I know there are a lot of people here who still like the stock setup better but to me the diffusers are just too cheap looking. Thanks everyone so far for your opinions as they are always welcomed.

Do you have any pictures of the finished project?

If I remember correctly it was once stated that the factory exhaust tips/diffuser were there for aerodynamic purposes. (How true that statement is however, is another monster all together)
