I bought my 2015 used I bought it this way and it has always bugged me, but never enough to do anything about it, until now. Does anyone have any tips for how to bend these back or where I can find just the tips? I would love to delete it, but the wife doesn't like the smell of diesel exhaust and I don't want it to be any louder than it is, someday I might be forced into deleting it, but for now I just would like to replace or fix the tips.
Deleting is pretty much a thing of the past the way EPA has come down on the tuner guys and the "race only" kits. Maybe you could go to the local pick n pull/junk yard and get the tips? or the muffler with tips?
Anyone who does exhaust system work should have a tailpipe expander tool and if used with care it will fix them. You may also buy the tool at Napa https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/BK_7...ubing+expander just make sure it is the correct size range for the diameter of your tips. Good luck, Russ

Doubt you are going to find a hand tool that will expand 4" to 6" diameter pipe. Most muffler shops expander is part of the bender that bends the tubes for new pipes.

This pipe not only includes the tips but the muffler and the over the axle section of tail pipe. Most who delete do not replace this section of the exhaust system.
Those tips come off pretty easily IIRC. You can buy just about any kind of tip that you like and will fit at most auto parts stores. My FIL changed out his to just a big turn-down.
Those tips are welding onto the tail pipe. Yes, they can be cut off and changed. I had rather have the bent tips than that monster tip that almost drags the ground you see on some trucks.
They are also there for emission reasons with the openings adding "air" to the exhaust as it exits the tip.

I know what it comes with. I guess it depends on area but around here almost all of the deleted trucks have a full exhaust including new tips.
