Default RE: exhaust tip

ya to anyone that think a tip is a waste of money..... well whats 25bucks for a nice tip! cleans up the rear VERY NICE if ya get the right tip that is

BUT if your tip is hiting the bumper... easy fix..... jack up the car.... put it on jackstands... then with another jack stand put it next to the mufflers exit pipe..... now grab onto the tip and pull down hard enough to bend the pipe down some.... BUT only good IF your pipes are still good if your pipes are rusted ya could snap off your muffler or exit pipe....


or if its the simple 3bolt clamp typicaly used for tips tighten the bottom bolts first before even touching the upper bolts... that will usualy give ya 1/4-1/2inch..... mine went right on great no problems.....

ALSO why your at it... get some high temp paint BLACK and spray paint the muffler... looks alot beter blacked out..... and IF your pipe sticks out from the tip or highly visable around the tip... then pull the tip and cut down the extra piping about a inch from the tips mounting point! i hate it when people screw tips on and thier rusty old pipe is sticking out from the tip! totaly ugly!



a full performance exaust will be nice... i wont lie... BUT geting a NICE exuast thats not to loud or not to FART CAN style looking.... can get into some high $$ range i figure ill wait till next tax check to buy my nice exaust system....
