When you guys rolled yours did you tap new holes in the metal, or new holes in the plastic straps and pull them up to the existing holes?

Ah I found some pics on srtforums. Zip ties look like the way to go so you don't have to drill anything permanent.

Not bad, but I'm not a fan of the tinted tails. But the ass looks nice. You might want to look into some high temp paint like DOS says, but it's up to you, as it doesn't look that bad.
Stock exhausts like to rust like mad though, and then they look like ass.

Cool, I didn't know this was so easy to do. I personally think the tips on the stock rear section are a little too small. I think it might look better if you have 4 inch tips, like with the Mopar or some other exhaust. Plus, my exhaust is stainless so as long as I keep it polished, I don't care if it's visible. I kind of want to try this now, as soon as it stops snowing and gets above freezing.
