Nope, I had an exhaust shop do a 3 inch pipe with an X where the resonators were. Tried to get them to do 4" tips that purchased and they couldn't. Said it would be an all day job and they aren't equipped make tiny cuts and mig weld. Going to try another shop before I return the tips and bite the bullet.

Got it. Yeah, very few people have gotten a shop to take on that task. Angles are too sharp and the distance too short. The few people I have seen that did get a shop to do it, the tips stick out too far.
