Default Installed Some Tips

I bought these at Walmart, I figured I might as well give the tips a try. Here is a picture of these installed on my car.

I used to have a walmart tip on my exhaust back before I went to dual exhaust. It started to rust after a while, so watch out for that. Now I have real stainless tips that keep their shine much better.

How much of a difference in sound are you getting from the walmart tips?
Thinking about buying tips but afraid they wont look/sound good.
How much did they cost you?

IMO
Tips do nothing to enhance sound.

I didn't buy the tips for sound, just for looks. I paid around $27 for both including taxes. I can t tell much difference in sound though.

I heard if you clip a playing card with a clothes pin over the tip you get a different sound...
Ha Ha J.k of course
