Default Which exhaust tip should I get?

I have a Spec D Tuning catback exhaust system and I like it a lot for the price, but I think what the tip on the muffler truly looks cheap, maybe because it is. I would like to make the end of it look like it has a rolled tip chrome or stainless steel, instead of a dull paper thin grey tip.I can not find a short chrome or stainless steel tip with a 4 inch inlet to cover the ugly tip. Please help

Cut the old tip off and have a new one welded on. There probably aren't very many or maybe ANY tips with a 4" inlet.

I see now it's a canister style muffler. In that case, I don't know what you can do besides buy a different axle-back. If you didn't like the look of it, why did you buy it in the first place?

It looked way better in the picture than in real life. Besides, it's what I could afford when I put the VTEC motor in and needed a new exhaust.

Paint it matte black, that's what I did to mine and I am happy with it. Besides, not many people have it like that so it's cool.
