Any pictures of Chrome Tips? on a 3.0?

Hi,
I want to buy the chrome tips for the 3.0. Does anyone have real actual pictures of this on their cars? How are they? Do they rust? Easy to install? Easy to clean? Thanks.

These are not the OEM tips, they are custom chrome tips that were welded onto the stock mufflers

They look great, I really want to have some tips like the 4.6 and 4.8 but I have no idea where to find them at. That's why I'm thinking about the OEM tips. Do you have any problems with your tips?

That looks very nice, Jeff. I'm thinking about doing the same on mine. Did they have to remove the rear bumper to weld on those tips or did they remove the whole exaust?

In my case they removed both, although in hind sight I'm not sure removing the rear bumper was necessary.

I had mine tips on too. Sorry for not having pictures for you. I bought them on ebay. They are very easy to install. You just slide them on and tap them in. The tips are about 4'' long and oval. Just need to clean it often with wash cloth. I love it.
