Exhaust pipe tips

I'd like to get different tips on the stock exhaust pipes than the beer cans.. The dealer just has the Gen 1 tips for almost $100 which I think is a rip off.. Do you guys know where there might be some other alternatives? The muffler shop that did my one ball mod only had very long chrome tips which wouldn't fit.. Thanks.

Keep tabs on the NAM marketplace. I picked up a set of the OEM sport tips for $40.

from what I've seen there are few options for the stock pipes because of the way they curve down so near the end. Your gonna have to get real imaginative and have something made up.

I found a local muffler shop anxious to swap out my tips...going to have it done Friday and I'll post pics. I bought the OEM tips, but decided I didn't like them, so I returned them. Just not for me...they stick out too far from the bumper.
