Exhaust Tip Considerations

I have been up in the air about this small detail for some time now and it's my personal opinion that a small amount of chrome on LBB is a better choice then a black out theme. The stock exhaust system performs & sound wonderful, the only thing I would change in this aspect is the D/P and Tips. I'm searching for a (Direct Fit) exhaust tip that has a high polished or chrome finish with a larger overall diameter. A rounded edge is a must, flat design or an angled option would be wonderful. If anyone has there ear to the ground please let me know! Thinking of retrofitting this product in the attached photo. Anyone else have these thoughts?

I had the Supreme exhaust tips on mine.
Did put black heat proof paint on them (professionally made) but the colour did not hold up (maybe I was to trottle happy ) Well I took these away and they are now back in polished state.
However I was never directly comfortable with the length of the tips. Since the original exhaust pipe is sticking quite far out that directly makes the tips to be pushed further out. To correct you would most likely to cut approx. 2" away from the original exhaust pipes. This is a no go for me.
The pictures are with the Supreme tips.

Supreme tips, polished.
Fits directly on M2, M3 and M4
I wet sanded and repolished, higher quality then supreme ever did.

Thanks for the responses guys. Nice custom work by the way, I just don't like the thin outer edges of this type of tip. I believe a thicker more round over all design would accent the rear better. The fact that the stock pipe excessively protrudes is somthing I didn't think of. Looks like i'm searching for a snub nose shorter type to accommodate now. Any one else retrofit something like this please let me know.
