You can... There are four rivets on each tip... Then you slide em out and replace with whatever tip you like... Remeber that they are all seperate tips and the two inner ones stick out just a tad longer... There is a guy on the forum(cyba) that has tips but they werent bog enough for what i wanted... I was looking for 90mm. I havent found them yet... Maybe you could check ebay...

did you ever find 90mm? I'm wondering what's the biggest diameter we can go without them touching. The OEM design with the 4 individual tips from the muffler makes it hard to go very big without the tips rubbing/looking cramped....

I stopped by royal muffler (local shop) today, he said maybe 3 niches would work, but he'd ned the car for a day or 2 for test fit and fabrication. I'm still searching....but might bite the bullet and let royal muffler have at it...

No luck on the tips yet... I think 3" tips would work... Let me know if you do...
