Question Opinions about new exhaust tip

Ok guys i went and bought a new tip from oreilly's yesterday (i know im cheap ) im just wondering what your opinions are because im not really sure what to think about it. Im wondering if it sticks out too far or if it even looks good at all. It was $10 so if it looks crappy just say and ill maybe take it off because its not like ill take a huge hit in the wallet. Thanks for all your thoughts. The pics are posted on my profile in the Exhaust Tip album. Thanks again.

It looks like your truck is lifting its leg and peeing on something. Cant you move the tip furter inward? Your going to take pesdestrians legs out while they are waiting at a bus stop

I agree with timeless. I would get it pushed farther in. I have my dual exit exhausts behind the passenger tire pretty much flush with the truck body. IMO, it provides a much cleaner look.

I have used "cheap" tips on several cars and they look OK. Better than a half rusted pipe IMO but you mounted yours way to far out like everyone said. If it won't slide back so it is almost flush with the body just cut some of the tailpipe off so your tip is tucked under more. I do this all the time. All you need is a hacksaw.

i would stick it much more in and turn the tip so the slash is parallel to the lines of the body.

i bet someone would walk by and scrape themselves then sue you.

Paint it black. I think it would look good on a dark colored truck. And since it was cheap, if you dont like it pick up another one.
