Wanting To Change My Exhaust Set-up

Wassup guys, currently I have dual 3" pipes coming from the rear of the truck and IMHO it looks a little wimpy. This is an image from my truck that I did in paint (be gentle).

 

My estimate is that these are widened to 4- 4 1/2" ovals and are dual on each side (quad piped) Has anyone done this? And my major question is...has anyone seen any exhaust companies offering oval pipes that will work on a truck...as my estimate is that the tips need to be approximately 8-10" in length and the about 12" overall.

 

Thanks guys.....and of course, do you like the idea or hate it?

here is another option as I have found these tips...they are 6" wide and 4.25" tall...I personally like the quad set up better I think.

Alright partner, this is my opinion.

Quad tips are only for cars, and really only some cars can even pull them off either.

The oval tips are too "bulky" I think. If you had something more rectangular it would look good. I know this is mine and of course im gonna think it looks good but these and another set are the only "oval" tips that these trucks can pull off out the rear:

The other tips I think would look good are the oval GMMG tips that come on their chambered cat back systems for F-Bodies. Kicker is you cant just buy the tips, you have to buy the whole set up. But I have seen them for sale on LS1tech many times guys selling them seperate. Ill admit its hard for any rear exit exhaust to look good on these trucks. Again, these two sets are really the only ones I THINK look good.

 

Hope this helps

 

PS: Here are a couple old pics I found

<br />I'm not a fan of the "Quad Tip" look either. I tried to find a tip that resembled the front brake duct vents and this is the closest I could find.<br /><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v192/98802/Exhaust/installedtips1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" /><br />

Do you have a pic of these from directly behind the truck at a slightly greater distance? Also information on locating some? I am still leaning towards the quad look, but this is interesting and what I originally wanted (similar to the front brake ducts). Thanks guys

I bought them off of ebay, I think the company was called WickedFlow.com, however the website doesn't work anymore. This is the best pic I have of them from directly behind.

Do you know what the over all length was/is? Clear the bumper well with enough of "shine" still showing?

 

And sorry guys apparently I put this in the wrong forum originally....I just didn't see just swapping the tips to anything related to performance, haha.
