Finally New Exhaust!! with pics

So i finally got all the pieces to my new exhaust!
i'm pretty excited I cant wait to get it all installed. I went with the Borla pro xs 3" in 2.5" out, i wanted to do the raptor/harley style exit but now that my Borla tips are here i think they'll be to short for that type of exit and the slash cut is pretty aggressive too. so im thinking of just having them exit like the second pic but just angled a bit? any comments suggestions? thanks

Sweet parts. I can't wait to see the install pictures. I like pic. 1, aft of rt rear tire, Gen. 1 Lightning style. Or, pic. 3, Harley/Raptor look aft of rt rear tire.

Yea I'm with the first pic angled a bit. the third pic would be sweet but you would prob see a lot of the smaller pipe from the back which I dont want. these are all after the right rear tire. I've never thought of 45 out both rear tires I was originally gonna do that with some 4x18 rolled tips I wonder if that will look good? Thanks for the comments!

Really why so? I really can't say I hate them, I like the "intercool wings" but I just wish they were a little longer. Ill find out if i like them or not when there on my truck if not its back to the drawing board. Im a little new to exhausts so I'm learning!

Haha working! And thinking if I should get new tips maybe?
I should have some time on Saturday. Any suggestions or anything to look for when I look over the exhaust work? this is my first exhaust and I want to make sure it's done right! Thanks

IMO I'd put the tips that came with the system on. They look good, its to bad they don't make a longer version.

One thing to keep in mind while looking over getting exhaust installed is getting everything welded very neatly.

I have the same muffler. Installed my tips like the third pic, but my slash tips are 18" long. Love it, sounds awesome

Yes I wish the tips were longer too I actually ordered these separate. I knew they were 9" long but i Shouldve researched them a little more but I'm using them!
It's not a kit I actually pieced it together with some help of some forum members and info I gathered on here.
