The longer tips like you guys have posted up look good even being bigger than the pipe it looks clean. The tips I think look dumb are the 4 to 6" or large 4 to 5 and 5 to 6 look ok if they are long tips. What sticks in my mind is a 3rd gen I aw the other day with a 6" straight cut tip that looked shorter than it was round and the guy didn't even cut any pipe off of his factory exhaust so the tip stuck out the side of the truck 9"s to a foot.

 

I made this at work. Goes from 4 to 5. My pipe was too short to extend past the body.

 

Yup, that's how my exhaust is now, looking to get an over the axle pipe asap.

 

Ive seen a few that look good, but personally, no tip for me. I like em raw, natural and coated in soot!

Have a good one.

 

i did not like the big tips either until i put my 5in on and my truck got all sooted up put on a 6 in to keep truck clean

 

Mine looks like crap now, partly my fault I cheaped out when I bought it and went chrome plated. It comes out the side behind the rear tire, catches a lot of gravel, etc.so now it's all pitted and ugly. Should have went stainless.
I'm thinking of taking it to a muffler shop and have a new piece bent up so it comes straight out the back. No tip, just a turn down.
I don't tow much or smoke heavy so I think it will work out.

 

Good job, I like how that tip flares out.

 

I guess I fall into the "dumb looking tip" category. I have the stock exhaust with the 5" tip. At first it worked to get the soot off the side of the truck. A month of dual 5" stacks, bleeding ears and back to stock exhaust. Although I changed the bed to a flat bed and the exhaust resonated under the flat bed and drove me crazy. So some 3" stock exhaust pipe and my 5" tip later it is a pleasure to drive/ride again.

Yep, you can see it's not a "true" 5" exhaust, you can see the stock exhuast lead into it.....but then again I ain't spending $600 on an exhaust system and if some folks think it looks goofy......oh well, I ain't in the pleasing business.

Like the cars with the huge lift and 24" tires, look goofy as heck, but I ain't driving it or ever owning one and I don't have to look at it.

I think with the 5" tip on it however it does give it a different sound, kinda like a trumpet at the end of the pipe. I had it straight without the tip and with the tip and it sounded better with tip installed.

But everybody has their own way.....so be it

 

My 4" in x 6" out tip actually makes the truck have a deeper tone to it. I should get an audio tape of it but that would be too much work. I painted the tailpipe and the smaller portion of the tip black so all you really see is the 6" tip when you are looking at it from behind. It looks much better that way...

 

I have a stainless turndown on the factory exhaust. It completely eliminated soot buildup on the bumper and quarter panel.

 

I went with a 6", but I moved the tailpipe back under the corner of the bumper to keep soot off.

 

I like my turndown. Keeps things nice and clean.

 

I'm removing my Meg's chrome tip today. Excellent product from Geno's but it's just too much bling on an already(white)bright truck. White sure works as far as not showing dirt,but it's so bland. Graphite next time.

 

That's why I went with the Two-Toned truck this time. I'm thinking about some black pinstripes next... maybe.....

 

OCD threw in a 5" SS tip with my MBRP exhaust kit. It's still in the box. It stuck out too far and I'm not really a tip guy.
