My 2004 stock was 2.25" to the mufflers and 1.75" exiting. You should look probably look for tips in the 1.75-2.00 range.

Ok. Thanks for the info. The rear cutout has so much more room to be filled out a bit more. I'll have to check my car and see.

oh definitely you can go larger on the tips but the inlet of the new tips still needs to clamp or weld onto a 1.75" diameter. Have fun modding!
