I've wanted to swap out my Stillen tips but then realized you can't swap 'em for titanium.
yeah, the weld will just crack the minute you put a vibrational load on it. but you should be able to make a titanium sleeve, like the invidia system or something. that'll get you the burnt look on a stainless steel system. something that just ratchets into the steel siding so you can adjust how far out it goes, etc.

personally, single exit exhaust looks weird in that space. it's far too big. like others said, though, it should be pretty simple for an exhaust shop to slice off the tips and put a custom rig on.
