I realize this is REALLY old question re stainless exhaust tips

Hi-i just picked up this car as as project car and am doing a little facelift. Not the official facelift,just smaller things like steering wheel cover,a driver seat cover,beige pinstripes,etc.
it's a 2003 with barely 100k miles on it super clean. So I'm trying to put some kind of exhaust tips on and my car has the funky curved pipe I can't find any compatible tips for.
Any input ?
Here is my car rear end and the tips they claim will fit on eBay. I'm no mech engineer but those two sides don't look very compatible.
Thanks in advance

My car

What I'm seeing available.

Just from the picture, it looks like a little cutting of the car's muffler tip would be required

Thanks. Yeah,that's what I'm thinking. I'll probably just leave it be.
Thanks for replying.

No worries brother. I've got an e500 wagon, and would love to have the quad tip AMG-esque look to my rear too. I've looked at the same cheap cr@p on Wish and thought..."is it really worth it?" My answer was no as well. The quality has got to be very poor, and probably wouldn't last very long. It would probably be best to find a set of used AMG mufflers and just get the tip's welded on by a muffler shop.

I'm wondering if something like this would work ?
It's Amazon,I could always return if I didn't like the look if I couldn't get the angle lined up properly.
