Oval-tipped exhaust?

Has anyone seen or heard of a company making aftermarket exhausts for the CL-S that have oval tips like the stock ones, but larger? I'd like oval tips that fit up tighter in the exhaust cut outs in our bumper cover. The comptech design is nice, with the rolled lip and stainless steel, but an oval shape would be nicer.

I heard thermal research and development was making a system with oval tips, not sure if it is on the market yet

The tanabe gpower medallion exhaust is somewhat oval. They make a very nice high quality exhaust. Here's a link with a pic. I think Snook carries Tanabe @ his site.

Thanks, blxmjk. I think those tips would look real nice, but does anyone have pics of this exhaust on a CL and/or experience with this exhaust? I wonder if the mufflers will stick out from under the car more than the Comptech system, like the ones on the GReddy EVO exhaust which stick out way too much. And that little description on the site makes it sound like the exhaust might just be a little too loud for me.

What about just changing the tips on the stock system or the Comptech system? Would this be recommended? I'm thinking this is just too damn ghetto, I'd probably be better of with the Comptech.

I'm also a fan of the oval tips on our cars! They just seem to look better with the oval-shaped ass of the CL-S!
