Different tips on stock exhaust?

Throwing the idea of going back to stock muffler and changing the tips. Any recommendations on something to full those exhaust cut outs? I like the STI tips. . . Any ways of getting those or would I have to get them shipped from Japan?

Current exhaust is pretty loud and thinking of selling to maybe change out to aftermarket catted headers and leaving everything else stock to keep it low profile.

The FT86SF catted headers don't seem to change the tone too much. I really like the JDL catted headers also.

I would just take a trip to your local muffler shop and ask for their catalog. There are hundreds just from Magnaflow.
Or just google it? Depending on the style I say any 3"or 4" tip would fill it out.

Either the JDM tips or the 2015 tips fill out the cutouts pretty nicely and are easy to install. I have the JDM tips on stock muffler and I like the look, keeps the car nice and quiet so I can keep the low profile.

Before the JDM tips I used a set of DC Sports exhaust tips, you can find them at like Pep Boys or AutoZone or even Amazon... do a forum search on the tips there are a number of styles to choose from and they were a popular choice back when the car came out and everyone hated the 2013-2014 tips, and until more exhaust options came out.

I changed the header, OP and installed a Berk fast cat but kept the rest of the exhaust standard UK spec. Unsure if the tips are the same as the JDM market but they do fill out the cut outs.

Someone posted about drilling new holes in the tips. I think I might try that. He also noted that the tips would probably stay without drilling and just tightening it.

Hey thanks a lot. It is nice to finally have a garage of my own. It actually just got painted this last weekend too, so now I can really start having fun with it.
