Position of tailpipes???

Win · May 7, 2009

I have seen a few cars like this in the past few days and i think i want to do this with my pipes when i get my new mufflers put on.

What do you guys think of the i guess you can call it a slanted look or angled look??

This is my car now.

Yes i know i will be taking off the bumper and tailights and painting them once i get into a more stable house.

Guess I'm not smart enough to get a ? out of that. If you are looking for a position, don't you need a pic showing the back of your car? This is an older pic of mine:

Is that what you are asking about?

No your right i just had a major brain fart there.

I was just trying to learn what you were asking. I guess my exhaust guy/mechanic pointed them right near the 'valance' part. Sorry, that's the only pic I have with my tails on.

I think you should go dumps.

i've got about 1" reveal of the tips under the rear valence.

I would also like to know how to get tips like the red car has in the OP. I like the way it follows the bottom body line of the bumper, it flows well.

HAHA speak of that i just found a Brand new set of Mac Pro Dumps about 25 min from me. there 3" but with the ball and socket flange it should seal up just fine.

Yeah that's what i was trying to say sorry again brain farts going on here. I love the way they follow the Bumper, the lines of it.

Do you know who's car that is? Or where the pic came from?

eliyarbrough · May 7, 2009

I had 7 different exhaust setups. I had a sound of how I thought it should sound! I got dumps just as a temp fix. That produced the sound I was looking for! It really opened mine up! He just took a piece of 2.25, I think, & put a 45 degree bend for the tips. Why spend for parts you will never see, I thought! You might want to try dumping your exhaust.

sleepn_sn95 · May 7, 2009

Im thinking that it might be from a fox exhaust system. You can see in this pic that they have similar shapes and bends.

Matt94GT · May 7, 2009

correct me if im wrong but im sure he just got 3" tips and got them bent up when they were welded on...i like that look too of them coming up slightly with the bumper, wonder how it would look from the back?

here are some pics for refrence...looks like 3" tips just angled to me?

mine:

his:

i want them!!

duh09 · May 7, 2009

I have to say I do like the looks of them following the rear bumper...

The reason why I switched to dumps was because my h-pipe and tailpipes were put on and the Hpipe was welded up, and it hung too low. So when I had my car worked on and had them put the exhaust up higher, the pipes were forced down adn looked like sshhhiiittttt. So I had them cut off at the muffle and some dumps welded on. I have no idea why you'd need MAC dumps, just go to autozone or wherever and buy some exhaust dumps there. Cheap and get the job done. i was planning on redoing my exhaust (Longtubes, prochamber, bassanis, and new pipes) but after I got my dumps on, I had my H welded up, and the mufflers welded to it (clearance issues with the connections so I got rid of them.) and I love it so I'm sticking with it.

sleepn_sn95 · May 7, 2009

Yeah thats probably how they got it to look like that. I just dont know if mine go down far enough to bend them up and still follow the bumper. I really want this look once I get my new exhaust

jc95gt · May 7, 2009

that does look badass

duh09 · May 7, 2009

The easiest way and probably the best would be to print a picture off and take it to a shop and have them bend it for you. Show them exactly what you want and they should be able to do it. If not, you shouldnt be at that shop

I actually just had my exhaust done and the shop put on stock looking tips but the are 2.5". The look nice and hug the bumper nicely! Here is before and after
