E55 AMG
round vs oval exhaust tips; has anyone tried using round; opinions please
Ive been wondering if anyone on the forum has changed the AMG oval exhaust tips to round ones. In general I've always like round ones better, and considering to change to round tips. Here is a photoshopped image and I would like to know what you guys think.

E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
Dual beveled round per side may look OK.

I think the RIGHT round tips look fantastic. Factory tips look good as well, but they look like they came straight off a 10 year old Cadillac. The only way I would ever change tips would be if I replaced the mufflers. After looking at the mufflers/tips a couple of days ago, I would rather rebuild the transmission than fool around with trying to splice on new tips.

I see nothing wrong with round. Both are fine IMO. Square is where things go wrong.

Yeah they look good on your car where they are professionally done, but slapping on some round tips versus the stock = big failure.
