Thx for keeping us posted!
Can't wait to see them on the car.

And frankly speaking, the bigger ones are the right choice ! They look very nice!

Did they charge you any additional fees for the oval tips or it was just a matter of extra time?

Heh, I'll be making another video with the same camera & distance from car when I've got them fitted.

I think they were 20-30USD more, so not much of a difference when total cost is considered. I chose the bigger ones since I have gotten used to the somewhat large and round Adamesh tips, and thought that clearly smaller tips would look a bit lonely after them. Also if they are the size of Jag accessory tips, they ought to look quite good ^^

I'm not sure I'd replace the stock mufflers with those, because they may not be as pleasant to hear as the bespoke systems by Adamesh/Arden/Borla/Mina/others. Of course, if you are indeed looking to replace the stock mufflers without "enhancing" the exhaust note, then maybe, but I'd be worried about the quality at that price point. Part of the reason I went aftermarket was sound, but another significant reason was that non-stainless exhausts corrode quickly around here (all the salt on the roads in the winter).

Here's my current tips in case you haven't seen the video clip post:

Hold yer horses ;D

I got the Mina mufflers today. Considering that they were sent on 7th and there was a weekend in between, so that's a rather quick delivery. To my surprise, the tips I chose are a bit bigger than the Adamesh ones.
EDIT: They also included the oval ones you can see on the website. They are prettier up close and I like the signature...well, no idea. I can swap them if I feel like it ^^

I just thought I'd point out that the Adamesh has detachable suspending brackets so it may be easier to adjust than the Mina, though on the other hand it only really affects how much the tips stick out so the solid tips of the Adamesh sort of necessitate it.
