Question Borla Exhaust tips Yes or No

Hey Just wanted to get some feed back and opinions on these Borla exhaust tips. I'm in the process of getting a c63 rear diffuser and need feed back on these tips. Any opinions besides customizing the OEM tips

those are butt ugly -- too busy looking.
less is more, stick with the AMG oval tips.

Although they don't look great, Borla does make quality stuff. AMG used to outsource their exhaust to Borla I believe till they went Sebring and later Eisenmann.

Rounded square or rectangular tips would look fine, IMO, but the ones pictured are octogon with a bulls eye pattern on it -- pretty rice.

get the Borlas, then enter your car in an "ugly butt" contest

honestly, they look like something you'd find on a toddler's transformer toy

maybe you could enter your car in a "transformer's butt" contest


edit: I hope that wasn't too harsh

"RICE" is being nice, it's just ugly. I dont even think I've seen those rice cars with this style tip.

The more I look, the more I love my AMG quad tips.
Sorry, those tips will look awful on your Merc.
