3rd gen exhaust tailpipe options

Post by fefelarue » Sun Nov 22, 2015 9:08 pm

Hello y'all.

I've got the 3rd gen booked into longlife exhausts for a full custom stainless system this tuesday, and I want some inspiration for what tailpipe(s) to have. As far as I know they can do pretty much anything, but I'm having trouble deciding what to go for. I'm thinking probably twin 2.25" straight cut, but what have you guys got/seen that looks good?

Stick up any pics you have of 3rd gen exhausts so I have a bit of inspiration :)

Thanks!

Most 3rds have the usual twin pipe. Personally I agree that looks best, but other people have other opinions.
@Nafemannathan had a single exit exhaust at a "jaunty" angle, for something different.

I used to have a 4" japcan at a jaunty angle as well haha, but it was very boomy. I think i'll go for the twin pipe, maybe extended past the bumper a bit

The car should be back with me in the next couple of days, with the original zorst back on, so nafes old s/s one will be available then. I'm putting the standard zorst back on ready to sell the car.
