Allow me to show you her behind :D

What do you think? I'll need to trim the plastic pieces to fit the new tips.









This is how far the tips stick out.




You probably want to know how the front looked. Here it is.

So fresh and so clean, clean! Love it!

The trim rings for the 4.8 style tips don't really "fill" any of the gap around the pipe---they just clean up the edge. For the couple bucks that they are though, they'll definitely be a good addition to polish everything off on the bumper!

I like what you've done!

Noice! Mine looks exactly the same, except for the wheels. And the flares. And the skid plate. Oh, and mine's a face lift.

But it's silver, and painted the lower rear bumper too.

Car looks cool, TMV!!!

Looking good. As for the trims just cut the exiting trims to fit the new tips.
Let me dig out some of mine old pic ... So you you'll see what I did.

[tmv]

Thanks all.
Tom, I cut the existing trims. Too dark for pic now, but I'll show them in the morning.
Time to update my signature pic. None of them look like that anymore

x2 tmv when I installed my Ractive tips I bought the 4.8 trim rings, they were 7 bucks apiece from the dealer, although cutting your stock trims may look ok, its cleaner with the 4.8 trims on there.

Looks perfect, my tips stick out as much as yours do, they really tuck under the bumper nicely!


Get some stealth bulbs but besides that your X (or is it your wifes) is perfection!

Nice looking ride!

I think you did some nice work! Looks great.
