MDX (07-09) exhaust oval tip on a 3G TL?
Everyone has either duals, round, or stock but does anyone have ovals like the 07-09 MDX? I was looking at my wife's MDX parked next to mine and it looks like it would fit the opening perfectly... Any chops out there of this???

I don't think it would look good, at least not good enough to go thru the hassle of taking it oem tips off and welding the mdx ones on.

I just don't like how thick the walls are, maybe if it was a thin wall like the greddy's, then it would probably look nice, but oval tips? round tips look nicer IMO.

I don't think the oval tips would look any different than the round ones. Here's some RL tips.

Here is a silver TL-S with RL tips:

I scaled the tips to make them appear the size they would in real life.

It looks good enough, but I'd keep it like it is. It doesn't look "better", just different, which means it's probably not worth the time.

This is but my opinion.

don't think it looks like it fits there. everything on the back of the car is squarish and then incorporating round tips kinda throws things off.
