I really cannot stand the look of the stock exhaust tips on my 06 MCS. My ultimate goal is to change the entire exhaust system eventually. I saw the Gen 1 S Exhaust Tips on the outmotoring website thought they look pretty aggressive. Any thoughts or pictures would help. Thanks

 

I have the MINI sport tips (the ones I think you saw) and had teh one-ball done. The tips look aggressive and I think are worth it.

If you want to go to an aftermarket exhaust consider the one-ball mod for the time being. This way, if you have other mods planned, you can do them and already know how they will function with a better flowing exhaust. Later you can just upgrade the exhaust to complete the process.
