Quad Tips (quick teaser shot)

Hey Guys,

decided to go for a slightly different look at the rear, and put quad tips on the car.

Have been toying with the idea of a full system, but honestly if i want more power i just drive the silvia. (and i love the peace and quiet of going back the g37 after!)

anyway... just for some fun we tried on a few different tips, 4" quads, 3" dual wall, E55 AMG tips, and finally 3" rolled lip.... (pictured)

I am surprised no one else has actually tried it (from what i am aware) but i am stoked with the final product!

will get some better shots when my SLR comes back

PUT THE AMG TIPS.. I kinda like the oval tips better than the round tips. It also fits the car a bit more properly, being that the G is a wide car.

yeah the AMG tips were my first choice, but honestly after putting them on the car they didn't look quite right as the total size of 2 of them was around the size of the stock tips...
(so overall they actually looked smaller)

if they made a larger oval style i might be keen, but this was my initial inspiration (which are almost twice the size of actual AMG tips)

Can you easily replace the tips, if you wanted?

^^ yeah , the only problem is with 2 X dual tips you need alot of patience and a steady hand to get them perfectly lined up, or you need to take the rear muffler off and put it on a jig. (they are welded on)

also... although this pic doesn't really show it off, the quads definitely make the car look wider at the rear.

Yeah those oval AMG tips (pictured) would definitely be perfect for the G. But definitely looking forward to seeing some good pictures. iPhone pictures suck ash, I hate our camera. The new iPhone camera is pretty good though!
