Custom 2006 V6 c230 dual exhaust

Finished my exhaust project what do you think? I like the setup but wish my tips where a little different. I may go to dual round. I ordered them online so was not sure what they looked like till I got them.

I used a flowmaster 40 and magnaflow tips and a very good mandrel bender. My resonator is still on but it sounds good so not sure if it will go or not.

Give me some feed back!

idk not feeling it, you need to push the tips in more, it'll look better more flush with the bumper

They are in farther than the stock tip was and there is no way to go any farther with the passenger side or I would have, so i agree.

I like the setup, but the tips definitely gotta go and the new ones need to be pushed in more.

I will get some pics under the next few days I painted all the pipes heat resistant black. The only bad thing is it will be hard to find dual tips that are as short as those and I don’t want to be out and farther. If you look from the angle pics the tips aren’t past the top bumper line though at least!

find another stock w203 tip and put those on. that would look badass. It would be stock looking but yet totally aftermarket at the same time.

Not sure if the comment above was suppose to mean my exhaust looks ghetto or what? I had hoped those tips I bought had a stock shape and appearance but the inside wall ruins that. They are very similar in size mine are just slightly more squared and the internal wall makes it look bad from directly behind

try to bring the tips more higher, if you want to stick to those tips, i would at least paint the surround black so you don't see the round hole inside the rectangular tip, just my $.02.

not a jab. no worries man. just in agreeance with others about the tips. look kinda too pertuvsive. maybe something with less flash or is a little more discreet.


good luck.

i was gonnna tell you that, paint the inside of those tips black, so you jus see the surround, trust itll look 10980987098x better

dual project is a hassle on the w203, trust me i spent time trying to find a way at numerous shops, its jus not effective.

I took everyone’s advice about painting the tips and they look much better I may keep them! Thanks for the constructive criticism!
