At least, IMO. I always thought exhaust tips are important part of overal vehicle presence and I cant't stand the look on my 3.0.
I've used Vibrant many times before in my exhaust builds and they are high quality.
My inital measurements show that it should work perfect in terms of position and how much they will stick out.
The removable around the tips will probably have to go but it's made to be removed in few seconds.
My neighbour is extremely capable welder and I'll update the thread when installed.
This is one of the first thing that I'd tried to rectified since I got the car back in 2004. It didn't took long before I chopped the OE tips then gave in and got a pair of Remus.

The quad tips will fit perfectly and appeared to be quite fitting for the car, IMHO.

I think I may have a thing for quad tips
