Gonna run up to Summit in the morning and pick up a Bully Dog tip, 12" 5 in 5 out.

Think it will keep the exhaust away from my fender?

Its gonna stick out a good 6" past the fender.

Make sure that it sticks out just far enough to catch that stump while wheeling!

Mine's tucked up as close as I dare and soot is a badge to me.

If it don't run chrome it

Thats the main reason I put one on my truck was to keep the soot off the bumper got tired of cleaning it. Ok maybe not the main reason it also looks really mean

Recentcly I put a 4x16 turn down tip on mine, works pretty good at keeping the fender clean. It is SS and matches my nerf bars like I did it on purpose.

The old straight tip, was no help at all. I could have extended it a bit more, but it really starts to look goofy sticking out that far.

We retail the 4x16 and 5x16 tips they work great! With the right angle you can completly avoid everything except a small corner of the bumper, Olee Poole has a setup on his truck thats about perfict, I'll find a picture and show ya'll!

For any w/ soot problems on their fenders or bumpers..... Windex works best! Car wash won't do it and I tried a bunch of other things.
I don't like tips and just spend 30 sec once a week to spray & wipe!
Windex is quick & easy....and does not hurt paint!

Got a 5 into 6 MBRP, and it helped a little...

Looks nice though

Had to cut off 4 inches of my pipe so it wouldn't stick out so far...
