    What is the best looking setup? As in single side exit, dual side exit, dual rear exit or anything else. And tip size. Pics are very helpful as well, thanks!

    I think most people will tell you it depends on what YOU want to achieve and look like, since it is a personal preference thing.:D

    Not visible like the magnaflow off road series Exhaust. although I have dual exhaust with each tailpipe on each side. I think it looks okay.

    Dual, or dumped underneath... i have to say dual because I'm OCD about things being symmetrical and its what i have since i don't wheel too much.

    well i mainly drive asphalt and hardly ever "off-road", i kinda like the set up senor taco has. just wondering what most people do and if anyone does a regular single side exit and if it looks good.

    I like the looks of duals personally. I have them dumped right under the bumper so you can still clearly see them and have 5" tips.

    A bunch a cool stickers, a bada ass MetalMiller Tx Longhorns grill emblem painted Hemi Orange, JBA long tube headers with o2 sims, Diff breather mod, Red LED interior lights, Fancy head unit that plays ipod n movies, Also DIY install factory stuff like, factory cruise control, factory intermittent wipers, OME nitro struts with 886x springs and toy tec top plate, JBA high caster UCA's for better alignmnet and dey beefier too, Old Man Emu Dakar leaf springs in da rear with the gear, U bolt flipper, Ivan Stewart TRD rims with 33" K Bro 2's, some bad ass weather tech floor liners so I don't muck up my interior, an ATO shackle flipper for mo travel in da rear wit the gear, also super shiny Fox 2.0 shocks back there too, all sorts of steal armor for bouncing off of the rocks like demello sliders, AP front skid, trans skid, n transfer skid, demello gas tank skid, and a tough as nails ARB bumper with warn 8k winch, I'm sure there's more
    I personally like the dual exhaust. There are two types of duals, rear exit and side swept exit. Rear exit I think looks the best, but has draw backs. If you tow anything, you'll blast it with your exhaust, offroading or anything where your rear bumper may come close to the ground you'll have the possibility of scraping the tips. No one likes a scrape on their tip. Side swept I don't think have any draw backs beside maybe the brake lines on the driver side coming off the rear diff. I've seen where they could come in contact with the exhaust pipe. Ya gotta be careful with that, but you may be able to do something to alleviate that. I don't like the exhaust dumped on an everyday driver, too raspy sounding in the cab. And for the guy that said don't get duals, what's the problem?

    I decided I didn't like it anymore and chopped it off. Now I have an Aero 2525 dumped behind the axle.
