*pic* for exhaust tips
Not the best pic, but it does look a little better than stock. Thanks to JeffTL and BigMan's help. Let me know what you guys think?

Cost me 50 bucks from Pepboys!! They have two different tips, one was a total circular tip and the other was a little slanted. I got the pair of the slanted ones because they remind me of the Comptech exhaust. They are a cheap brand 3A Racing, but they are stainless steel. It should take you no more than 30 minutes to install. The size I believe is 3" wide and 6" long. It actually bolt all the way to the exhaust. Now they look great because the tips actually extend a little out from the bumper making them more noticable. If you guys need a pic from OEM. I actually took a pic, but didn't have time to upload. Let me know and I will post a before and after pic. Oh, make sure you get a wratchet with a 10MM socket to unscrew the bolt from the OEM tips. They are a b*tch to take off without the wratchet.

Compare to stock Pics
The angle is a little off but I don't see a big difference compare to my stock (on right). The stock has 3 inch openings. What is your opening?

3A Racing! bahahahaha! ahem...thats the some ones I got (from Kragen), but decided to go for a more OEM look and went for the non slanted ones. As for the measurements, they are 3.25 inches wide (outside measurement) and 9 inches long. And I second that, about it bolting aaaall the way back to the canister. Now, I was thinking of maybe buying/making some sort of flange so that at the tip of the stock pipe could help support the heavy tip during extreme vibrations, rather than it being held up only by the 3 bolts.

Take a picture more from the side so we can see the profile. I was going to move the stock ones out further until I realized that they tail pipe actually seated into the very end of the tip.
