Pictures of what people are running for Tips?

What are you folks running for tips, I am still searching what is the best exhaust package for my truck, I have been to every single speed shop in my area, talked to every single exhaust shop in my area and they are all telling me to run either

Dynomax Bullet, comming out in front of rear wheel
Flowmaster 40 SIDO with 2 pipes in front of the rear wheel

I am deffinetly going in front of the rear wheel, after much thought, it is what i really want, but I looked at a bunch of tips in the speed shops, and cant seem to picture it in my head how they would look, so I am here today pleading to see some eye candy of all your lightning style exhaust tips, either singles or duals, just to give me and idea of what I am seeing in the store will look like.

Thanks!

Curtis

I don't have any pictures to put up yet, but I just recently did the exhaust on my Lightning. I put the Mangnaflow system on with 3.5 inch stainless steel tips on it. They look awesome and are very loud. They have a great sound to them. It's a deep throaty roar. I also had them mounted sticking out about an inch and a half instead of being flush mounted. I will try to takes pics tomorrow and post them, but I figured for the time being you may want to consider the Magnaflow system. Goodluck.

pacesetter shorty headers ran true duel w/ an X pipe 2 40 series Flowmasters exciting out the side and no cats. i painted the tips black with some high temp grill paint if you do that make sure you shuf up the crome first or elce water and rocks and stuff will chip it easy.

Not infront of the tires...but a rough estimate as far as size wise, these are 3 Inch.

Exhaust tips

Polpilot,I really like the way your exhaust exits out the side,nice, neat,clean.I have the 50 series FM's on my truck now,high flow cats,X pipe 2.5" all the way out the back,no tips.I have a set of Magnaflows(p/n14377)that I want to install and I'm considering running them out the side like your setup.Is it loud? I see you have the 40 FM's,do you like the exhaust note you get @ idle?Is your truck loud when you mash the gas pedal to the floor?Just curious on different setups before I change mine,thanks.
