New Mufflers
 
Just put in the magnaflow 14851 mufflers, and they're nice, but the outlets are huge! im beginning to second guess this purchase. Any ideas on a different set of mufflers i could purchase? or should i just suck it up? cause really the only think i dislike about these are the 4inch outlets..

If you like the mufflers otherwise, I'd just chop the tips off and weld some new ones on. Tips come in a variety of sizes/shapes/materials rather inexpensive, and the welding would take only a few seconds.

I'd go for some Whistle Tips, personally! Check out 1:45 for some mad drivin' skillz.

I personally like the large exhaust tips

keep the tips i have the same mufflers on my 02 a4 and they fill the cut out in the valence perfectly.

True they fill out the valence nicely but! the large 4 inch tips make me feel a little ricey lol. if you like them thats awesome, but im not feeling them to much, ill keep them for a bit i guess and if i dont like them ill take them to a shop and ask for 3" tips or something. i feel bad getting rid of brand new stainless steel tips thou :( lol

most people get rid of the 2.5 or 3 inch tips and go to 4 inch.

At first it may look strange but after a while you will get used to it and realize how much better it fills the cut outs. There is nothing ricey about it, the tips fill the cut outs.

perhaps getting different 4 inch tips that look more stock would be a better idea.

Perhaps, im slowly getting use to the look haha, they're a drastic change from the stock, so i was in slight shock in how large they were lol. im going to get a HFC soon and do the rest of the piping as i get the hfc put in. I dont want the exhaust to be outrageously loud, and i figured the 4" outlets would give a little to much noise.
