    well broke a hanger on one of my tail pipes. i thought they were safe from mud and ruts, but i guess not. also, kinked the pipe a bit.

    i could just weld the hanger back in place and call it a day. you would really have to look to see the pipe kink. leave my tips as is.

    but i can't see to keep an exhaust system the same for very long. i like to change it up atleast once a year. well this year i did get a new muffler with my old tails. should i just keep what i got and fix it, or change up exit styles?

    What muffler is on it now?

    IMO dont do any visable tips or anything, it clutters trucks up.

    i have a hooker aerochamber currently. i like it tons better than my CB extreme. nearly drone free inside the cab. you can still hear it, but it does not have a resonant drone that others do.

    i kinda thought about like 70's muscle car like. turn downs peeking out from behind the bumper

    ^^^ That was exactly what I had in mind. Like WetPaint, I hate seeing anything that draws attention to the already busy and ugly looking rear ends of a truck and the turndowns at the rear corners is not too common. Go for it

    yeah. i like how mine are set up now. they are tucked up and kinda hidden, but as i said i like to change it up.

    I like the idea of doing some turn downs like in your pic. You don't see that often and it's something different that would actually look pretty cool
