Where to put the pipes

Where should my exhaust exit? SMOG inspectors here must see your pipe for them to pass it.

that depends Tyler, do you consider yourself a hillbilly? if you are, run em out the back. if you're an old man, turn em out the sides behind the rear wheels. if you really wanna do something different, turn them out behind the rear tires, at a 45* angle right under the corner of the bed.

I like them dumped, but I guess you can't do that, so do what 1faastc10 said--out the corners.

I voted for out the back, but I would turn them down right at the bumper. I think exposed chrome tips are a bit old school...

I like for them to exit at a right angle to the body, behind the rear wheels. This is a pic of mine, lightened up so you can see the pipes.

Around here, the cowboy types always want glasspacks that exit under the bumper. I hate that 12 inch glasspack BRAP!sound...
