Default Borla Exhaust w/ Blacked out Factory Tips

So I finally got the Borla Kit Shipped in and Installed yesterday. I really wasnt too keen on the Dual Tips per side and thought that the Factory ones fit the opening better anyways. So I decided to Matte Blacked the Tips to match all the other Trim. I had my brother do the Install at his shop in Mission Viejo. He had to cut the Factory tips and Weld them on but the Finished look came out awesome in person.
He also had a Maserati in the Shop so it made for a good Photo-Op at the time haha

How does it sound? Is it raspy or does it sound mean?

I think if I were to switch out my exhaust I would keep my original tips too. I think they really look good on our cars!

Nice job!!

Don't mean to be critical here, but what's up with the Infinity looking sign? Is this a Hyundai wants-to-be an Infinity? And I think you should re-check your capitalization. Not trying to be a hard-ass, but last time I checked the words: "Installed," "Dual Tips," "Factory," "Matte Blacked," etc don't need to be capitalized. That stuff drives me crazy....

With that Being said, I Think the Stock Tips in black look Good.

I don't like all caps either. But keep in mind, when a new thread is started, the op is asked to enter a title. Capitalization of titles is proper.
Staying on topic; I hope it sounds better than my Magnaflow, it has the drone thing going on.

The "M" logo is from M&S Styling which makes stuff for the Gen coupes and I ordered it just cause it looked better than the oe "H" but as it turns out the day it came in the mail is the day I was diagnosed with MS so now it has a little more meaning to it now.. lol
