Just looking for some views on these 2 setups I've had on my car this week. I'm not saying what the difference is, but here's 2 shots, which one looks better to people?

I'm not concerned about tip size as both are pretty similar and both locate pretty much centre to the bumper tip hole. I'm after come views on which one looks best in personal opinions on how each set look on the car.

need to get some light into that shot man....but im for shot 1!

Shot 1 has that larger look to it, while shot 2 has the bulkier look, All in all I'm with Shot 1

The one that flows the best.

Both flow the same at the mo, but once the 'look' is selected, the choice will end up flowing WAAAAY more air.

So the general fell is the no slightly poking out tips then?
You prefer the 'standard family sedan' hidden tip look?

And yeah, appols for the poor light. I'll do another one today in the light. My 450EX flash just wasn't strong enough outside last night

If it was me with the white I would have the tips out a bit otherwise the area of the bumper will eventually be stained

fair point b'n'w, was thinking that today, any extra heat being generated as a result of what I'll be doing to the mufflers (gutting their contents out completely), it's better that it not be contained under the plastic of the bumper as it's likely it'll either stain, tarnish or just plain old heat damage the area around the tip.

I've also been looking at a number of cars today and have noticed that the current trend in cars seems to be exhaust tips that extend a centimetre or two out of the exhaust shroud/hole in the bumper. Performance vehicles especially seem to have this setup (AMG Mercs, M spec BMW's, even our 05 Audi A4 Turbo Quattro).

I think I'll stick with this setup as it also offers easy roll-back to original mufflers if needed.

+1

Both set ups look too stock to me

That's coz both setups are stock!

The idea is that these mufflers will be 'adjusted' to flow a lot better but maintain stock look to avoid unwanted attention.

Fresh new images added for better comparison.

I like tips poking out better I think. Just enough tip without being too much.

Muffler 2 has my vote

Agreed

Nice number plates

number 2 looks fat

Well now that I have seen better pics of Pipes 2, I'll change from Pipes 1 to pipes 2
