Exhaust Tip Recommendations

HanSolo · February 14, 2015

There are a LOT of stainless exhaust tips out there. I'm looking for something for my 2014 Sierra SLE 5.3L that looks great and will last. Any recommendations?

Seeing that you also have a black truck, well getting it lol. I went with 3" or 3 1/2" slash cut black chrome tips which I think look great on a black truck. I don't know the brand, just had a shop do the exhaust and told them I wanted black tips. With regular chrome it doesn't take long for them to look bad even coming straight out the back like my 98. So that's one of the reasons I went with black. It shows dirt of course, but it seems like all I need is a good rinse to clean them.

So that's as far as my opinion goes, I say at least get black chrome for a black truck.

The 2nd pic they're dirty as hell, but shows the actual tip better.

Got a call that I may be able to pick up the truck Monday. It needs a present. Looking at the Gibson Slash tip. Haven't decided yet, though. Definitely like the angle cut tips.

I have the Gibson tip available. 40 bucks shipped

I have a slightly different motivation. My two dogs run around the truck in the driveway like crazy and the tailpipe is eye level for them. The tailpipe has an extremely sharp edge. I bought a factory tip with the angle and, more importantly, the rolled edge.

Yea I also bought the oem tip with the GMC emblem embedded and I love it so far it was 90$ a bit pricey but so far the quality is a 10 in my books.

I personally like my Corsa tips. While they are more expensive than most out there the quality on these guys is top notch.

Ordered the Gibson Slash tip. 3" inlet, 3.5" outlet, 12" length. Hope it fits.

HanSolo · March 13, 2015

Wrong size. UGH! I even confirmed it with AutoAnything before ordering. 5.3L Sierra actually needs a 2.75" inlet, not 3". Have to find a FedEx store to ship it back and wait for the right size now.
