3" over axle tailpipes & under axle anti-roll

It is finished finally and back in the garage, only need to tune it now. The beautiful 3" StainlessWorks tailpipes and 14" mufflers had to go with the IRS. But the custom fabbed over axle replacement sewer pipes aren't exactly too shabby. After the MRC roll-control was welded to the 9" Moser solid the last step was getting tailpipes made. Yeah turn downs would have been OK for the track but I didn't want that. I got two 170* bends along with a couple J's from StainlessWorks to start with and the rest was freestyle fab-o-rama using pieces from what was getting replaced. I could only fit 10" mufflers now so they also made Turbo straight thru Hi-Flo mufflers from measurements I gave them when I ordered the bent pieces. The guy that welded it together added a solid removable strap to make it completely solid from the mufflers back, but you can't see it until you crawl under.

The car is a mess after bouncing from shop to shop for 16mos. It still has burnout spittle and crust from the last passes from fall of 05. Here are some pics, tell me what you think:

looks good but the tips look like their sticking out too far

Just a temporary thing while I am tuning it. Gotta start pig rich with smoke and soot and the occasional wet back fart shooting flames out at the end of the 1/4. No I'm not concerned about the final "look" yet and I'm not making a fashion statement, I just hate cleaning black goo off the the rear bumper cover. I know some track rats that know why I did that, not obvious to everyone.
