POLL: What do you guys think of my S4 with a single tip exhaust?

Im getting mixed results from the audi folks about my rebellious custom exhaust job. Not too many people are used to seeing Audi's with single tips as they are to japanese imports. So I figured I would try to get some opinions here.

Looks good.

It would look good with 1 or 2 tips. I like that car.

Very impressive! I enjoy the cleaner look of a single tip.

By the way, your car is beautiful! Have pity when you blow past me!

I dunno, i think the single tip makes the car look slower. But then again, everyone knows that S4s are fast.

Looks good to me.

Is that black leather?
I have a very very very soft spot for pearl white cars and black leather!

the 1 tip looks pretty good, but personally 2 tips looks a little better imo.

Why not try to get it converted to dual exhaust? There are places here that do it for about $150 + parts where they cut your bumper for the additional exhaust and make it REALLY look stock. I've got 2 friends who've done that on 750iLs.

I know about the whole weight savings and all with one muffler, but for the extra style, try to get two. I can't get it done on my car unfortunately, I've got no space left on the passenger rear otherwise I would have.

But, since the original post was about dual or single tip, I'd have to say dual, however the single isn't too bad either.

I moved this to Car talk - you'll get more replies there. We all like polite people who own other cars!

BTW - is the S4 an I6 or a V6? Regardless, I love the symmetrical look of a dual exhaust. On a single, I definitely like the single tip. More subtle.

It looks unbalanced with the emblem and exhaust tip on the same side. YMMV

To be honest I prefer the 2 tip combo. I think they look best on Audis/BMWs. But do what makes you feel happier.

I like the one tip just fine, it's just a little big for my tastes.

Wow, 1st time seeing an s4 w/ single tip exhuast.

IMO, dual tips look good unless you get dual exhaust w/ 1 single opening like the cl-s.

It's ok but I much prefer dual tips. Maybe I would like a different single tip better? Also, I don't like how it sticks out past the bumper cover. Nice car though, how does it sound?

GRRRR.... I hate what the civics have ricers have done to the motorsports. Low horsepower cars add big mufflers to there cars to make it look high horsepower. When a high horsepower car add big muffler, everyone things its rice!

I was a two tip man, but single tip looks awesome if the car is lowered as it is now. Let me post some new pictures of my car after suspension work.

Dual exhaust with one tip on each side looks best, but that looks really good.

It looks like there is one on the left, but not on the right.
