GM FX PACKAGE?

[SBMARO'11]

SO I HEAR ITS A MUST TO GET SQUARE TIPS WITH THE GM GROUND EFFECTS REAR DIFFUSER? OR CAN U GET LIKE LOUD MOUTH EXHUAT N AXLE BACKS LIKE THAT?

[2010SSRSM6]

The GFX kit will take up to 4 1/2" round tips. The inside of the ports are beveled to allow for normal tips.

I haven't seen an axle back kit that didn't fit. I know JBA's fits just fine.

i want the rear ground effects diffusser that SIEBON made and the side rockers as well! have u seen them?

[2010SSRSM6]

I've been running round tips since '09 and don't have an issue with it.

You have to look really hard to see the tips.

[SBMARO'11]

[SBMARO'11]

[leonardo]

I went with no tips at all and love the look

I had square tips at first. They would rattle every once in a while since they was was really close to square bezel. I ended up pulling them off and welding a screen into the bezel and powdercoating it all black. Came out pretty clean.

That looks good. Did you paint your bezzels/exhaust ports? If so, with what kind of paint?

Yeh, no tips with mesh to hide it. I had the mbrp tips at first, but I liked the no tip/screen look better

and where did u get the screen? just asked ur local car shop? or home depot lol

V8. I got the expanded metal mesh from ace hardware. They sell it in a big sheet. Pretty heavy duty stuff. I cut it out to fit in the bezel and welded it in. Heres a better shot

No tips is definitely the way to go.

We have made quite a few customer supplied tipped systems work with the fascia, but most of the time it results in rattles and issues with the bessel piece trying to come off the car and/or get distorted.

There are quite a few companies that offer there cat-back/axle-back systems with no tips to accommodate the fascia.

If your considering a full exhaust with long tubes, I would recommend an entire kooks system.

Thanks

thanks mike but i already have the long tubes with the xpipe so all im needing is the axle back. ima see what my next steps are probably the american thunder flowmasters n take off the tips or somthing. or even custom axle back.

Im running BBKs LT with JBAs axle-back. If you want to keep it somewhat civilized, don't change your mufflers, if you want to wake the dead, try JBAs kit.

I got the magnaflow tips for the gm body kit. They sit back so you can't really see them and they do look good but if I was to go back I would have gone with the mesh look.

Here is what I got...

I did not like the tips sitting so far back under the car, so I moved them out a little.
