Exhaust Tips on a y87 muffler?

Post by 3800SERIESII »

Would it look reasonable? I noticed how the dual outlets point down quite a bit...

Is the Y87 the muffler with one outlet on the passenger side?

no, it is the dual outlet.

I think two simple chrome pipes would look pretty cool. As long as they don't stick out too far.

Yeah, I feel the same way. I am more concerned of the "downspout" outlets on the muffler, if the "down" angle will be too much.
