Any way you could take a couple of pics and post them? That'll help me make up my mind.

Here's a pic of mine when I had my 350z springs in before my sportlines were installed.

it's raining outside, hope this helps...i like this option b/c if it does get messed up (i'm lowered on unrevised z-springs) i can just easily replace them. they're currently held in place by just friction

See, those aren't even pushed back all the way to the muffler. I would probably push them in a little further, but even how you have them doesn't really stick out much further than stock. In my opinion the stock ones look terrible and mine are starting to rust. I may pick up a pair of these and try it out.

I agree with OK, I'd push them back a little farther. They do look better than I thought they would. You drive an 05-06 correct?

yeah, it's an 06. as for pushing it further back...the actual pipes that come out of the muffler are just inside the bottom of the tip

Nice how did you know they'd fit? What's the width of the openings and lenght of the tips and how did you install them?

ill take a close up pic of it. there is a two screws on each tip and then you just screw it onto the original little pipes that stick out, its pretty much like the stock tips

Hmm, so I guess the only way to push them in a little more would be to cut off part of the actual exhaust pipes. That kind of sucks. I think they would look perfect if they stuck out just a little less...maybe even a half inch or so.

As for those AutoZone ones...do you know what brand they are? Also, what is the size of the inlet/outlet and how long are they?

Autozones dont look half bad. I might look into that because the roadsalt really eats away at the finish.

I agree. I'd like to see some close up pics though and know what brand and size they are. I wasn't able to find any on their website that looked like those.
