Default Custom exhaust -- keep the stock tips?

When going with a custom exhaust, did you guys keep the stock tips or take them out?

I think alot of people are taking them out since cat backs come with their own tips

It'd be nice if I had factory exhaust tips...





I like the idea of keeping the factory tips though. If not, a nice length of plain 2.5" mild steel pipe is always a sexy solution to any tail pipe problem.

The Ark setup removes the fake chromey tips. Several of the other systems I've seen just exit in the same place the factory exhaust does so you can keep the fake dealie-bobs if you want too. It wouldnt been too hard to make a bezel for the hole in the rear valance if you took them out.
