Chrome slip-over pipes

UglyFast88 · 05-24-2002, 08:41 AM

Does anyone make a decent slip over chrome cover for my 5.0? I've seen the chrome ends already welded to the exhaust as a unit for sale, but I bought the car with these already on it. Want tips running from the final bend behind the rear tire to the tip.

Thoughts?

I don't know where you'd get them in the states but up here in Canada at the friendly Canadian Tire you can get some tips called Boom Tubes. They come in different sizes for different applications but there are a set that I'm looking at that are 3" diameter and about 2 feet long. I'd have to take them to a muffler shop to have custom welded on (don't forget about the hanger back there) but they should be all you see after the wheels and would look pretty sweet

Thanks- I just looked on their website, and didn't see anything. I'll try JC Whitney just for shi*s & giggles...

wow, I just spent like 1/2 hour searching the web for boom tubes and couldn't find anywhere to buy them online

If you go to a local shop that sells exhaust and custom tips they might be able to help you out
