I know where Youngstown is but my hometown(and car) are on the opposite side of the state. Sharp car though, it looks identical to mine when I bought it.

Chrome wheels would help tie them in a lot better, but they look good to me. I don't personally like seeing round tips on '93-97 Camaros very much. I think since the fog lights are rectangles, the tips being rectangles looks really good.

I never cared for the rectangle tips. They just look out of place on a car that essentially doesn't have a straight line on it.

Now it's obviously personal opinion, but I like the way my exhaust tips are set up better than anything you can buy.

your car is sexy
this is mine from a side shot. Not a single scratch or dent. Im thinking i might just get some round tips instead.

Thanks. It's been the source of a lot of headaches, but when I step back and look at it, they were all worth it.

It was on the car when I bought it, but it's a Hotchkis brace, so you should be able to find one pretty easily. I like the look it gives as well, and it makes a nice handle to pull yourself up into the engine bay when the car's up on stands.

There's my exhaust tip setup, by the way. It's a custom arrangement that I had my exhaust shop fab up. I don't think there's anything like it out there for sale. The unfortunate thing is with the way the underside of the car is designed, going with this setup means the tips will not be symmetrical. I'm a symmetry freak, by the way. I've been able to overlook that little drawback because I like the rest of it so much.

I like those a lot. I was going to get some similar by magnaflow, but I just got the stock ones stripped and had them ceramic coated for really cheap.
