Sorry about the color correction in these pics. The red is particularly horrible, but that IS a 4"er!!

$74 BUCKS!!! For aTIP?? They better offer free shipping. You're paying for the name. I'd look elsewhere. You can do better on that price, I'm sure.

does anyone think a 4 inch exhaust tip is too big for the 3? I don't want a coffee can but...trying to find a suitable aftermarket tip has proven harder than expected.

ive got a four inch tip on my exhaust system, and like dentinger said, it fits perfectly in the cutout of the bumper. it looks great. also, the mazdaspeed3 has a four inch outlet which fills the space nicely.

I was gonna suggest that too, but not everyone has an Auto-Zone near them... but Auto-Zone is trying!!

They do have a pretty good selection as I've seen them here too. If you're near one,go check it out. Or, check w/a local muffler/exhaust shop.
A nice double walled 4" tip shouldn't be any more than about $30 from what I've seen. Then you'll want to haveit welded on too, unless it's a clamp on type.

RE: Replaced stock exahust tip.

The tip I put on also comes in 4", you can geteither a 3.5" or a 4". I got the 3.5" tip because I didn't want a really big tip but I bet the 4" looks good too. Just specify which one you wantwhen you buy it.
