Ehh I'm not feeling it, but that's just because the cut outs in your diffuser isn't oval enough. If only you could widen the cut outs just a little on each side of the tip. Either way as long as you're happy with it who cares what I think. Like John said, points for uniqueness.

Sure is nice knowing exactly what these tips look like on the G Sedan.
Thanks, ANMVQ. You're a braver man than I am.

The tips I like quite a bit, the mating to the bumper is where it's a bit off. These quad tips on the Bison kit fit well due to the fit of the diffuser. If there's any way to flatten the top of the curve in the exhaust cutout that would clean it up IMO.

Reminds me of a girl I dated in highschool.
One was bigger than the other.
She didn't have a car though.
Kidding. Is that valance CF or CF printed vinyl? That could change the whole dynamic maybe if the opening could be modified, opened up a little to be wider. Dunno. Maybe set back just a tad further, could change the look too. I kind of like it -- since your car is well modified and customized, probably wouldn't work on my mostly stock G.

OMG, you're doing this all wrong. 
Step 1: You start looking for tips at least 6 to 12 months before buying anything.
Step 2: You finally buy something, and make sure everyone on the Forum knows about it.
Step 3. When they arrive, you place them on the fireplace mantle for at least 3 more weeks, so that you can appreciate them, and your family can mock you.
Step 4. You take pictures. Lots of pictures.... front, back, sideways, next to the cat or dog, if you have one.
Step 5. Installation, and more pictures.

ROTFLMAO!!!!! I was seriously in stitches reading this John! LOL, even the fam gives you a hard time huh?
Props for trying something different ANMVQ. Looks pretty good. In for more pics to see how the exhaust routes out. Does it go out both ummm...openings? Aw, dang that just sounds wrong the way that's worded. 
Thanks for the 'chop Tony.
I was wondering what this would look like too but like how he had them done.

Since this is a look that's new to us it will look a bit strange, or at least take some time to digest. The more I look back at those pics the more it's starting to grow on me, it's a nice effect having the smaller shorter tips on the outside as it coincides w/ the curves of the back end. Also looks like a very nice install as far as keeping everything symmetric.
Kudos for thinking outside the box!

Perhaps it would better without that bloated, off-color trunk spoiler. After which, the 370GT emblem and the overlapping tips would be something exotic at first glance, rather than odd and out of place. Honestly, the more I look at that back-end, the more certain I am that the trunk spoiler is the problem, not the tips.
- Ditch that fugly spoiler.
- Lower the Fuji.
- Straigten the 370GT badge.

It might very well be level to the ground, but not the lines on the car, which aren't the same thing. It could just be that picture, for whatever reason it looks clockwise a fraction of a degree. Placement looks right, though.
It's a subjective thing. Heck, *everything* in this conversation is subjective.
