Wuzin -

How do they look from the rear *view*. Granted, the perspective when looking down does not look good, the side is passable.

I cannot see from your pics, but you do have the *trim piece* that goes around the exhuast hole right ? I did not have it on mind, and ordered that as 2 seperate part #'s/pieces. They should extend about 1/8 - 3/16" past that trim piece for the *just right* look

Just saw JST posts. See that trim on the perimeter of the hole.
That's what I'm talking about.
On my 4.4, it did not come with it and I ordered that....

Need to fix that. With the tips out that far, you run the risk of burning your leg if you rub against it while loading things in. Sister put a custom exhaust on her Cayenne and it stuck out like yours. My 5 yr old daughter tried to reach in to get her beach gear out of the back one day and burned her leg. Almost a year later and the mark is just now gone. (of course my sister felt horrible and took it back to the shop that did it to fix.)

The tips don't extend beyond the bumper, so I doubt you'll burn your legs.

It doesn't look bad, all personal preference.

My Dinan exhausts also "stick out", but I kind of like it...What do u guys think (honest opinion)?

Thank you very much for the comments guys,
I personally like the stock looking, so I'll be adjusting the tips.

Thank you jst2878 for the picture, is that stock 4.8is exhaust setup?

and LeMansX5, if you could give me the stock measurements, that would be GREAT!

Thanks again guys.

OK, do not look at how dirty my X is as I had no chance to clean after the latest snow storm. Detailing this weekend. But here the pics for you Wuzin.
