Exhaust tip?

Got a new 2006 Superduty 6.0. Looking for an exhaust tip but
don't want to pay the $120.00 the dealer is asking. Any ideas?

Thanks Guys, I measured my tailpipe and its 31/2"s.
I noticed about all the tips i search for are 4".
Will this work or am i going to have to keep digging?

Well, you can spend the bucks if you like. Or you may want to try what I did. First off the tailpipe is stainless steel, but has a processor's finish that looks pretty shabby. Gotta get that stuff off! I started by using SOS pads and extra cleanser to get some off. Then I used 3M Imperial Wetordry Production Paper A Wt. Started with 800 grit then moved to 1500 grit to polish that sucker up. Takes some elbow grease but well worth the look of the finished product. Nice thing about this all is that keeping it looking good is pretty easy and you did it yourself.
Yer choice.

I did the same thing as timcommon on my 02. It has stayed nice and shiny for a couple years now. Just wipe it off when I wash the truck and it looks good. Polsih it to a mirror finish.
