exhaust tips?

Has anyone here had them done? perferably the S55 ones? if so I would like to see them as opposed to the real ones to see if its even worth it to do. Or can you spot the fakes a mile away?

The S55 is acutally an exhaust system

And the tips you can see from the side.

in order to use the S 55 exhaust will I need to change out the rear bumper or just cut it?

well I guess if one ever comes up cheap I will but I guess I will juts have to cut the bumper. Now my second question is the S55 exhaust on the 430 will it provide any gains in the hp department or sound dept?
