I personally like GXP exhaust tips. And if I am not mistaken Andrew (harofreak00) still has a pair for sale. viewtopic.php?f=27&t=32128

They do look a bit off, I don't have a picture at the moment, but I like them better then stock ones.

I like these. They are very similar to the GXP exhaust tips, but are more meaty. I don't have a picture so here's a video instead. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xccrfZpkgN4

These are another great looking alternative.

I just wouldn't go with a plain old single pipe, it won't match or flow with the lines at all.

I LOVE the GXP look tips, got mine on ebay a few years ago. Originally had them on my old '93 SSEi, then put them on the '03 SSEi.

I would actually love to see a set of chromed cowbells. I think they flow with the stock body lines(Ei, SLE) the best.

Lovin' the look!
However, I too would be interested in seeing chrome cowbells. That would look awesome.
