Would you mind posting a picture directly from the back of one side? Will they still fit the opening if they were moved up an inch or so? They look great. I like how close together they are. Also, where did you get them?
They could be moved up a bit, I was actually hoping they would have been a bit higher, but you don't want to go too high so you don't melt anything. I got them from eBay. The link was posted earlier in this thread. I'll try to get another pic.
 
pigman- your avatar made my day LOL. McJiblets

Question, what wheels are these?
they are XO Verona's, 20x9 front and 20x10.5 rear.

Just got my set put on this evening (sorry for the potato phone). I think they really fill the cutout properly!
Looks good! Who is the supplier?
 
Mine showed up last Friday. I'll be going this week to have them installed.
 
I've had the 3.5" ebay tips that were posted earlier in this thread, on my car for nearly 2 years now. The 3.5" fits perfectly IMO. Aslong as the tips are installed properly and not touching anything. You shouldn't have issues melting anything.
 
I finally had my new tips installed.

They're 3.25 tips from eBay, link below.

Seem like decent quality. After reading this thread I felt 3.5 was too big, and after seeing spacing of these, 3.50 would cut it really close touching the lower valence.

Only gripe I have, which it was hard to judge with the car on the lift, is the passenger side is a little wonky. It looks worse in pics than in person.

I'll have the shop cut and reweld it when I take it back to have the resonator chopped off and an X-pipe welded in its place.

Noticed nobody responded to this but those look amazing. Almost perfect fit. Did you have to buy 2 of them or did they come as a set? Also on Ebay and in your pictures it is hard to tell if those are staggered. Can you confirm?

Saw this thread the other day and wondered the same actually when I looked at ebay. It says includes one piece but if we order two of them wouldn't it be two for the left or two for the right? couldn't flip it upside down since it is slant cut
 
Not staggered and the ebay ad shows "no fit" for SS. Wouldn't look right or fit well since they aren't staggered. IMO. Also the SS has 2.25 pipe size.

Had to buy 2. They aren’t staggered, but I loved the look.

I bought a Solo Axleback and miss the larger tips, but worth it for the extra sound.

If I did it all over, and wanted bigger tips, I would buy those tips again.

So if you call Solo they will actually make them with 3.5" staggered tips. Did that and just got them this week. They look great. Only problem is they sent me two driver side pipes:bangheadonwall: And the tips I thought were gonna be welded on but they are clamp on. Oh well I guess I can have them welded on
 
I wish someone made a 3.25" staggered tip for our car! In photos, I feel the 3.5" "looks" too big for the valence opening even though it might not be....sort of like seeing a fat person ride a motorcycle!
