Bolt-on exhaust tip, 3 in inlet, 4 in outlet, 12 in long

Installed — bought 18 Sep 2026 on Amazon
Why this option
The driver-side rear tailpipe was damaged in the rear impact. Resolved with an inexpensive bolt-on tip rather than the OEM extension pipe: the tip covers the damaged section and restores the finished appearance for a fraction of the OEM part, and the exhaust behind it is undamaged.
Trade-offs
A departure from the OEM-only policy that governs the rest of the collision repair on this truck. It is a cosmetic termination rather than a structural part, which is why the exception was made. The first tip bought, a 5 in outlet diesel-style tip from eBay, went back for a full refund. The muffler upgrade that was under consideration has since been bought, and it keeps the factory tailpipes, so this tip stays.

Installation
What wasn't in the instructions
- The new tip's 3 in inlet would not slide over the tailpipe as it was. The damaged tip was cut off, and the end of the pipe was taken down with a grinding wheel until the new tip slid over it.
