I would cut it further back where it is coming down towards the ground after it comes over the axle and never look at it again!

Please post a picture if you can.

I would like to, but there is an OEM resonator over the axle and the tailpipe turns almost immediately horizontal out of it. And there is a hanger after the resonator that I think needs to stay intact to support the weight of the resonator.

I know, I have been under a 6.2 or 2 lol. You could still ditch the pipe as far back as you could to the outlet of the resonator and add an extra hanger. Or just cut the resonator off and then do whatever you want. If you aren't adding anything up front ( like long tubes and a cat delete) it's still quiet and drone free.........

Trying out a 4" Gibson stainless tip. Matches up to the 3.5" tailpipe nice but still trying to decide if I want to keep this or cut the tailpipe off further back.

Thanks. I ended up tucking it under a little further from what is pictured. Tip gave it a slightly different tone, but still very quiet.

Here some photos. My tip is a little closer to the bumper I think. I also have the ck 370's coming soon. Will post pics of them when I get them mounted.

Looks good. I'm still undecided on whether I like mine or not. Am interested in seeing your rims when you get them.
