Round or Oval?

Bootsie · 04-23-2007, 10:50 PM

Should I get a round or oval exhaust tip on my sedan? The round one is less expensive, but I think the oval might look better.

What do you think?

Thanks

Personal preference on this one. I have round.

Oval for sure, I think having a round tip in the oval cut-out in the bumper looks bad.

i like the way the hfp muffler looks like

As long as it's not over 3.5".......I think either one would look OK. I like my round one I put on. Just don't put on a fart cannon

i think an oval one with fit the bumper cut out better. Just my .02

I have oval and prefer it. Round doesn't look bad though.

I like both round and oval. i have the hfp oval muffler, which i like. I have also seen the Tanabe and Evo 2 round tipped muffler, which also looks nice IMO.

inyong1988 · 04-24-2007, 11:11 PM

for sedan, of course OVAL

^ That is what I decided. I ordered an oval one tonight, I will post pics when I get it installed.

Thanks for all your input guys!

Here is the hfp muffler tip.

There are many aftermarket oval tips, but maybe this will give you an idea.

Here is a pic of the one that I ordered. It is just a cheap one, because I am only doing it for looks. I wanted the $12 Walmart one but they don't carry it where I am. This was about $18 with shipping.

I will post pics of it on the car when I get it.

One is generally considered to be an intake. The other can be used either way.
