    What is the best place to buy exhaust tips

    I`m after a 2 exhaust tips for dual exhaust on V70R,ideally 3.5"-4,5" oval or 4-4,5" round.Any pics as an example if anyone done this or links would be great.Looking on ebay at the mo but so much rubbish on there,don`t want to spend stupid money on them either.

    if only I saw this earlier mate...

    I cut the 3.5" powerflow tips of mine today to fit less conspicuous, longer ones. I literally sold them an hour ago for a tenner!

    sorry dude.
