Personal preference is the best choice to me.
Indeed BB Mike. but at the same time we can ask people that have experience or a eye appeal on what one is thinking about doing. Like I said. I will stop by the muffler guys tomorrow and ask about a cut and weld cost
Thanks for all you do for the MCF fam

 

I don't think the double holds true to the body/bumper lines, and for me would be overkill as I haven't boosted it yet. it just looks like it is

I really hope I can make the bowties fit if not at least sharpen the lines with the polished ss

 

Thanks `Shawn, I agree, it's great to ask questions & opinions of others & I love the activity that your question created on the MCF Great member contributions & preferences. I was happy to read that you are doing your homework and considering getting them welded on...It looks more professional (I think)>Yes, I do think (LOL) sometimes Will be looking forward to your update(s) + pictures.
Thanks for creating a active thread I hope you inspire other member's to do the same Peace/Out

 

thanks again, for this great forum of people that love their MC's

 

I talked to the muffler shop and he said, for 45 - 65 he could get the 9" bow ties tucked in so that don't stick way out (crimp start either at edge of bumper or even under it)
So I ordered the gloss black bow tie tips today. Hope they look as good as I hope they will
Will post photos once they get installed.
Thanks everyone for the feed back and ideas to help me think this through.
MCF rocks

the "before" pic

 

I got the black bow ties welded on today. He cut the tail pipe back a bit and just let the bow tie stick, it is still farther in then the upper bumper section so not a shin hazard
I think they look good will take a bit to get used to the new look

 

Ohhhhh I love those double bowtie chrome ones!!!!
Admin Mike...love those LED taillights too!!

 

Those black bowties look nice with the white of the car!!

 

Thanks
The color is cappuccino frost, It seems a bit less popular than the other colors, I have not yet seen another one this color in person
A coworker was out of State and thought they saw me because they saw one this color LOL
The crazy part about this color is, it sorta changes depending on lighting, it even shows in the pics
sometimes looks white, sometimes pewter, sometimes even silverish
