tail pipes needed -- maybe some cats?

Hi guys,

I bought a 2.5" catless x-pipe from a mustang owner who had welded everything together, drops, x-pipe, lers and dumps.  I'd rather not have dumps both for noise (I have no idea what these lers are going to sound like) and fumes so I'm looking for some used over-the-axle tail pipes.  If I can find some high flow cats that would be great too.

you can use any fox mustang GT tail pipes but they will need to be extended at the bumper end about 11"-13"

Thanks.  Know where I find a pair?  I haven't come across any at picnpull or CL.  What do people do when they want to change out the stock Y exhaust?

Thanks.  And you extended them 13" where?  just before the tips?
