Default Which looks better?

I need help and I figured I could turn to y'all for help. I'm torn between mainly two styles of these exhaust. the first ones are the Shockwaves http://www.martinbrosbikes.com/shockwaves08.phpand the others are the daisycutters http://www.xoprodox.com/martin-broth...ters.php?cat=8. I was hoping for ur opinion which is better looking. Also if u have pictures of any Martin Bros. pipes I would really appreciate a look at them. thanks in advance.

I say Shockwaves. The DaisyCutters look like a lot of other pipes. The shockwaves have a few different bends and twists than you would normally see. As I always say, go with what YOU like the best. You can never go wrong.

I vote for the Shockwaves. The Daisycutters look like the V&H Big Radius.

I agree, shockwaves out of those two. If you want Daisycutters, you might as well get the V&H Big Radius, atleast youll get heat shields and they wont blue.
