Default Fishtails

Love my rinehart slip ons and im not gonna give them up but i sure would like fishtails. Any body know of any fish tail endcaps that would fit rineharts? I dont mind the look of the SE's but i think they are for 4 inch mufflers. Really want somethin different... All my buddies have the same damn mufflers

fishtails only really work on straight pipes... they look dumb on a 3 or 4 " muffler

my POV as a traditionalist.

worth all of 2¢

I had fishtails on the shotgun pipes on my 52 pan. I thought they looked cool but never could get to like the "hollow" sound they made.

I had them on my RKC - straight pipes. Loved them. Not a big fan of them on a wide diameter muffler although the smaller V and H look ok.
