I am not sure what exhaust you have, but my 3" F.I exhaust made it pretty much impossible to go with quad tips. I would of had to redesign the entire axle back of the system. I opted to just go with some large ovals.

The guy still had to cut my mufflers off and move them to make it work. As you know they were to low, and not even close to center when I cut them off. This may be an option you need to explore.



I think the way the painter put the black around the holes throws off the look. It is way better in person, he did not understand what paint the whole diffuser black meant....

The large ovals look like it would work especially with the entire diffusser blacked out as you originally planned. Hope you get it painted soon to what you had intended. It would look great I think. Where did you get the oval tips? I'm finding you have to have quite a commitment on these puppies to make it work.

Spoke to LCR about the paint job on my PW Z and he mentioned something about a MB Z they had done a Zele with, he probably meant you. Said no issues with paint matching but had a little hesitation with the PW. Cant understand why.

I have nothing to do with LCR. My kit is authentic and can be verified with Mark at Bullet Proof Automotive (370ztune).

The ovals came out great but I still would rather have quad tips like the OP's. I am still sourcing around to find something that will work and allow me to keep my 3" axle back. I want to recover some funds though first, these tips are not cheap. I think these ovals were around 400.00 for the pair.
