Would like to replace my rusted out exhaust tips on my recently purchased Charger.  I've included the following pic, as S & S claim these are like the factory tips.  Please advise!  Any experience with S & S tips?
Thanks!

I used Accurate exhaust tips.  If you do a search you'll see my thread on the install.  I think they look perfect.

I dont see the hanging straps on the picture posted above and the edges look a bit to round.  ??? I got mine stainless from Mancini Racing.

The factory tips did come with a hanger, you also would need the hanger holder that bolts to the frame.

That is if you want perfect stock correct. If you like those, and need to save money they would look OK
when installed.

Picture below is just like a Charger tip, but these are for a plymouth, so the are a little more rounded, but
it is very close.

Thanks to all of you for your responses, that's what makes this site so great!  I do like the Accurate ones but couldn't find the install thread.   It's spring and it's time to start enjoying our cars!
Enjoy cruisin & thanks,,

The first Stainless tips I used were about an inch to short out the back, but were correct in every other way.
I looked around and found a correct length set. I am using repro chrome units on the blue car. I am re-chroming
my wife's original tips, they are still in great shape, and the car is still all matching everything but the alt and
so fourth, but I am looking at that  ;D

Couldn't the clamps for the exhaust tips be either the saddle type (like previously shown) or be the Q-clamp (can get a picture if necesary).  I got the Q-clamps from Frank Badalson/Roger Gibson.

Yes, originally the clamps were the "Q" style.   These are only available in 2¼" though
I went full 2½" on my system so those clamps were out for me.

I would spray those Q clamps up with some sort of color or clear coat to protect from rust.
