3.5" or 4" quad tips?

Looks like my next mod will be a 1LE diffuser and quad tips. Well, the next one AFTER the rear ACS extension.

What do you guys think looks better, 3.5" or 4" quad tips??

Here's mine with 3.5" tips.
I looked a a lot of pics of members cars, the ZL1 and 1LE and went with 3.5" as I thought the 4 inch tips looked a little too big. I believe the ZL1 and 1LE models also have 3.5 inch tips. It all comes down to personal preference.

The size may be determined by the size of ACS extension. I don’t think you can go wrong either way. Go with what will fill the void the best. Good luck.

Thanks! I'm leaning towards 3.5" especially if that is what comes on the ZL1 and 1LE.

The width of the 1LE diffuser opening is around 9" at the centerline of my exhaust tips. The tips are about 7-1/4" wide across them.

lol, yea the 3.5 just seem to be too small and wouldn't fill the opening as well as the 4's would. You know what they say,, go big or go home!!
