How to finish my muffler delete?

Hey guys, so I've had my G for about a month and after enjoying it's engine and exhaust notes for a couple of weeks, I decided today that it was time to check into exhausts and intakes. So just for grins I took off my mufflers today (surprisingly easy, took about 15 minutes or less) and I am INCREDIBLY happy with the results. My "perfect exhaust" is one that has a little noise/grunt/throatiness but will not drone when cruising; the muffler removal did this PERFECTLY. So anyways, right now I just have no mufflers on, and it's perfect, so I was wondering what the easiest/best/cheapest way of completing this is? Would a muffler shop make a pipe to connect to the midpipe and pop out the back? and if so, could I put the stock tips on so it looks stock instead of a plain pipe? or is there some pipe prefabricated that I can purchase online? Let me know my options guys.

Also, if anyone has a suggestion for an intake with similar characteristics(a little grunt when accelerating but no drone), let me know:0)

Go to a muffler shop, buy a set of tips you like and ask them to make a straight out for you.

You can ask the ahop to cut off the stock ones and try to weld them back on.

^What he said

They can cut the stock tips off and make the 2- 45 degree bends easily.

About $100 of work, if even.

is the Tanabes a full exhaust though? is it catback or what? I LOVE the way this currently sounds, and it's so cheap compared to other options, SUPER easy install. Plus, i'm not really looking for performance, just a slight growl, then an intake down the road somewhere...
