Following pics may or may not do my tips justice. They were sagging until I did the fix, now they are tight up in the bumper.

GM SPO tips would look good on your car.

Here are my tips, 60 each.

http://www.pfyc.com/pc/GN5008/04EXH/Dua ... +Tips.html

Let me know if you want more pics I could shoot some tomorrow with the tips fit snug up into the bumper. I don't think you can go wrong with the GM SPO tips, or the ones I've got. The reason I didn't go with SPO tips is because the pipes on those seem to sit too close to eachother, looking kinda odd from behind (imo). That may also make it harder to clean and polish the 2 almost (or touching) areas of the pipe. Correct me if I'm wrong though, I've never actually seen the SPO's up close.

Crappy pic qualilty but I did get around to taking some exhaust pics with them raised up into bumper a bit. I just used the stainless clamp method on the hangers.

Also, really good side note: The rear bumper fascia wouldn't clean up very well with cleaners, etc so I took some interior dash/trim restorer/cleaner from meguiers and tried that, made it perfect and reflects.

Ben did you use the regular hose clamps, but made out of stainless? I had clamps on mine before, but they broke or fell off. Maybe take some pics so i can see how you did it, and so we can all see if the iowa winters turn the bottom of your car the same color as the top haha.

Dude they do rust, fast. At least once it hits the body it won't be nearly as hard to detect lmao!

I've had clamps break when I put them on the muffler to hanger. This time I did it a little akward to see if I could do something different. They now hang from the body (rear part of frame) and connect to hanger on muffler that supports it with just one nice stainless clamp. I will try to get pics of this, but let me warn you, it is ghetto, but I've got no other idea of how to hold it up, and so far this works great.
