Exhaust tip

I'm thinking about buying a exhaust tip about 4" wide.
I don't want a full catback because I don't like mine too loud.
I just want to go for looks, not performance.
I tried searching for some of the "tips" shown on azine, but didn't find any.
Is there something that look nice without costing me lot?
I read something about getting the slanted ones...
I'm no car wiz so please understand...
Thanks...

Sorry, don't mean to hijack this thread but, has anyone tried the exhaust tips that come stock on the now previous Gen TSX? They look very good and better than the TL OE tips IMO. I want to try them but I'm not sure if they'll fit on the pipe. Here's a few pics.




Also, a Hello Kitty exhaust for the ladies!

i have the exact same tips... and it looks exactly the same, the left one is barely touching the bumper... i've had them on for almost a year and havent had any type of problems except a little paint coming off the underside of the bumper where the tip is touching the paint...

3A's are available at any auto parts store. just be aware that some of the stores only stock certain sizes and mebbe one of each size so you may have to order. If you search an old thread, you'll find the exact part number. Also some people get the Pilot brand tips from online.
