I voted for oval tip, but it depends on the individual exhaust... some look great with a round tip and some look better oval. Too "ovaly" doesn't look that great either in my opinion, at least on a stock car.

Oval... but IMO, might as well get a mild exhaust system ... L-tuned comes to mind.

Round for sure. Much more sporty looking than the original oval shape IMO.

I though about the L-tuned, but will hate to have that drone @ cruising speeds, I like nice and quiet

Oval. They fill in the rear bumper cutouts nicely. I bought Magnaflows but ended having my Borla tips but on there because I love the look so much.
