Default Tunderheader Slip On's vs 4" Rinehart Slip Ons

The more I read the more I'm unsure of what to do.
Vance & Hines Pro Duals with ThunderHeader Slip Ons
or
Vance & Hines Pro Duals with 4" Rinehart Slip Ons

I love the sound of the Thunderheader, not crazy about the looks (but their growing on me), I'm looking for performance and sound. Some of my concerns are either you Love the Thunderheaders or you don't. Many have stated it's hard to ride with a group because of how loud they are.

The Rineharts are obviously nicer (if that's important), but some say you lose lower end torque and they are not as loud.

I understand it all is personal preference, however I could use some experience input/insight.

This is on a 2013 Electra Glide Ultra Limited

Ask if anyone likes the color blue and you'll will get the same responses. Unless your going to be racing for money or pink slips, I'd go with what you like for whatever reason.
I just put Vance and Hines slip on's (side shots) on our new 13 Heritage and threw on a set of Night Rider Xied's. At 103 inches, it's more than enough power for cruising. I was just looking for sound. And speaking of which, Im sure you been on youtube and have searched for you combination and listened to it. I know I did.

It's hard to beat the sound and performance of Thunderheaders. I've got the slip-ons on mine with S&S Power Tune Duals and they sound great, as well as perform.

I have the 2 into 1 Thunderheader. People behind me don't like how loud it is but then again I cant hear them complain.

I love how they sound up to about 3500 RPM and from then on it is just loud.

Is it true the reason the Thunderheaders get a blueish tint is because they're not tuned properly? Also because, I'm only thinking of the exhaust slips ons vs the full header and exhaust, wondering if it would have the same affect.
