I had an MBRP on the 05 Ram I had and the left tailpipe was also tucked up and out of sight with lots of room around it so I know it can be done. Not sure why they went past the pumpkin in plain view but that was the reason I passed on the Borla system.

Some bad pic's from my I-phone. I had mixed feeling's about getting larger tips, but when I put them up to the bumper they matched up nicely.

Looking forward for a video. I had a Borla Catback on my old 01 jeep Grand Cherokee and I absolutely loved it. Nice low sound when idle but a deeper one when I step on it.

Yea, I was thinking they don't look quite 5'', they look like the perfect size for the dual exhaust bumper.I think 5'' would be too much.

Wow am I the only guy that likes the factory exhaust? I have a sport, there was a recall for the Laramies to put a quiet muffler on them. I would not have had that done. As time goes on the OEM starts to sound good as it breaks in, my wife backs in and when we hit the autostart it scares the **** out of me sometimes, you don't hear a start just voom and its running. I think by using the autostart it actually starts better and quicker.

Im sure you are not the only one that likes the factory exhaust tone. I think it sounds great but its to quiet. I would be happy if my exhaust dumped into my cab. I probably wouldnt last long in there

I liked the factory exhaust on the sport. So much that I reinstalled it one month after the magnaflow 14" swap but I am back with the magnaflows now. It is the factory tails that are really nice, tucked up out of the way and a perfect fit integrated into the rear bumper. I cannot understand the expense of swapping these off for an after market catback though, just my .02 here.
