Hey guys..My car is doing good..I had to get a $200 tune-up because I think I had bad wires and stuff..But I had a question about the exhaust/muffler..My car didn't come with the chrome tips and I was wondering does it make a difference whether they are on or not(i.e.quieter car or anything)...?..And where can I buy some from because the Acura OEM site wants like $70 for the pair..?

Hey do you guys think the chrome tips from AutoZone for $20 are okay until I feel like paying almost $70 for OEM Acura chrome tips...?..Let me know what you guys think..
