if they were only $20 I would have gotten them and rocked them for a week or 2, but $50 is just too much to spend for a few laughs.

A ghetto mod from VIP comes to mind. There was a blue xB2 there that had those chrome 16" hubcaps from walmart.

someone would buy an exhaust tip becuase if you havnt noticed, the rear bumber on a xb has a huge cutout, and the tip that it comes with only fils 1/8th of the cutout. therefore, instead of spending hundreds of dollars on an exhuast, you can buy a tip for twenty bucks to fill that hole and not have to deal with the loud sound of an aftermarket exhaust. sorry for getting off topic

Yeah...I think a chrome tip wouldn't look too bad coming out of the cutout but I don't really want to spend all that money on a new exhaust system. Walmart has tips for like $6-20 but I don't know if it's worth buying a cheap one or looking for a "name brand" one.

i had a PW xB rev up to me the other day with some of those on, i am like dang, here i am with 19's and everything and here this guy is with chrome hub caps and mexican flames on his box...i just laughed and hit the gas...too bad the xB is the slowest vehicle alive, but i did have an advantage over him, i have headers, TRD exhaust and an intake, and sadly for him the flames dont make it go faster

"Extremely fashion and new aparent sun roof"
Great stuff...

And read the Q&A section...there are people on there who really don't get it. I especially like the guy that says he's getting a Viper and wants to put one on it.

Default exhaust tip

I went the route of an exhaust tip too. A good quality stainless steel with chrome plating. It's very heavy and seems very well made. I got it from Auto Zone. It was $29.95 including tax. Took about 10 minutes to take the factory tip off and install the new one. I feel I got the "look" without spending so much $$$.
