The ones you guys are talking about for 69 and 89 bucks on Amazon are not as nice as the ones that I refereed and the original poster refereed to in early posts... the ones at Amazon and where ever else your finding them are not staggered, there nice but the staggered ones look best!! Just my 2 cents!!

Correct, they are not staggered, but they look great on the car still, I liked the I staggered look better. But like you said too, that's my two cents. Also when looking at the car from directly behind you can not tell the difference between the staggered and not

So I'm really excited to finally be able to do my quad tip mod, been waiting forever...
I would just order them from him again if your smart... I've looked other places and no one else's tips compare!!
Good luck!!

Yes I did have them welded on. 150$ at Midas to do it. Like the others say, you can get the staggered too, I ordered the staggered ones from the link posted in the OP initially but it was a 1-2 month wait to get them. They are nice no doubt, but honestly I feel mine look great, I am 110% happy with my choice and have no regrets, plus if you really don't like them they are only 70$ which is a good price in my opinion.

usranger80 · 07-31-2013, 04:25 PM

Everyone has their own opinion, I think there have been pics of both types posted, and honestly I can't tell the difference unless you really get down there and look. Find what you like and put it on.

The guy from the tips.bythehost.com (SSclones) site is a good honest guy too. I purchased, he wrote me saying it would be mid to late August before he got them in and asked if I wanted I refund. I told him I would get back to him, checked out the tips I have now from another post and decided to go with them, wrote the guy from SSclones and said I would like a refund and he processed the refund in 24 hrs. So you cant go wrong with him either, you just might have to wait forever because the tips have been on back order forever and due to the popularity of this mod they may sell out quick.

Unlike some posts that get real elitist quickly, I think it the staggered thing is not a deal breaker. I think they both look good. More critical than the staggered aspect is to get someone who takes their time lining things up before they weld. They need to be "tucked in" and centered. I saw a job down here that was terrible right to left, and crooked. Very apparent to the eye.

I agree, the guy who welded mine let me hold them where I wanted them and when I said "good" he tacked them in place and we went from there. I have seen some tips that stick out waaay to far from the diffuser. With the MRTv2 though you don't really have a choice it seems since you have to cut the old tips off behind the hangers which seems to make them line up fine.
