Didn't like the stock 4" round exhaust tip so I replaced it. The new tip is also 4" round but it's an angle cut, dual walled with a beveled end and it's stainless. I put the same one on my 07 MZ3 but it was 3.5". I got them off of Ebay for $29.95 plus shipping, I like it better. The first pic is the stock tip, the next two are the new tip.

I like that. I've been thinking about doing something like this.
 
i dont see why it would be the problem

the tip is completely seperate from the exhaust system. its just that. a tip. adds nothing for preformance, and size relatively doesnt matter.
 
my friend got a ticked he was driving with me in his mustang gt...we were going to the beach and cop pulled over us for tints than he looked at exhaust(magnaflow) and said that his tip are to big...bla bla its illega in nyl to have tip bigger than 3 inches...maybe cop lied to him but I know that he got 2 tickets for tinsts and exhaust....
 
It IS illegal in NY to have an exhaust that is louder than stock, I just can't find any reference to tip size being any part of that. So if he had a magnaflow on it, it is illegal.

Interesting! I'll be in NY for the first time on July 17th, five day vacation with the family. I'll listen for cars and trucks that sound louder than stock, see how many I see. Here in California, changing the exhaust is fine but there is a db limit, don't know what it is though. Loudest things on the roads here are the Harley's, some are LOUD.

Not everybody gets ticketed, I'm sure. It's one of those rules a cop can pull you over for if he just wants to give you a hard time (i.e. if you are making an ass of yourself)

Yep they can be a little bit more into the profiling. You get pulled over you are are going to get a ticket and the spanish inquisition.
 
there's no way they can site you for anything on a stock vehicle, period. tell them to **** themselves.

they are not to bad Im driving with purple fogs and they never pull me over but last time one cop pass me bye and turn on the lights and crossed median so I turn of my lights and added some speed and turned into dark streets :P he was a bit behind so i tryied.....my friend is driving with exhaust cutout in his scion tc and never was pulled over for that and that thing is ******* loud ,you can hear him from 1 mile away....so overall I think that cops in my area are pretty cool....
