Stainless Steel Exhaust Tips for 99 RL
 
Anyone has a recommendation for stainless steel exhaust tips for 99 RL. Something which is truly stainless steel that will not rust quickly or anytime soon. Links or brand name or any relevance info will be appreciated.

Not stainless steel, but I have 13'' long Magnaflow daul 3'' chrome tip. It looks good lol. I don't have pics on this laptop, but I'll post it tomorrow.

I got only one pic. I couldn't find the other. I need to take some new pic of the tip.[IMG]http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/7725/28440575.jpg Uploaded with ImageShack.us[/IMG]

Looks good. 13" is long. How far is the tip from the bumper? Any bumper melting issues?

The stock tip on my 96 was around 8 or 9'' long, I'm not sure. I just cut the stock tip off and added a little extension so the new tip slightly passed the bumper. I had a magnaflow muffler with the same tip, but it was too loud so I took it off. Anyway, it has been there for almost a year now and it is not melting the bumper:tongue: I'll take pic from the rear so you can get an idea how big the tip is. I'll post it tonight if I have time lol

Thanks for the pics. It looks like the tips are touching each other. I am looking for something to put over my existing pipes. I will prefer not to do any welding. Based on the info you provided, I will look for something less that 3" in diameter. Thanks again.

If you don't want to weld, you could go to any auto stores and get a 2.5-2.7'' tip and screw to the oem tip. I did that before lol, but I didn't like the way it came out.

Thanks. But I'm going to put on an 03-04 taillights. I got the taillight already, but I never have the time to do some custom work. I was so busy installing my type s speakers and repainting my front lip.:tongue:
