Hot tips on exhaust tips? 850

I've been searching for just the right new exhaust tip for the 850. To my eye that would be oval or rectangular(@ 3" x 4"-5"), angle tip, rolled edge and definitely polished stainless. A dual tip might also look good but have'nt found any to safely fit the bumper opening. But I'm open to ALL suggestions....
What looks HOT to you and where'd you get it???
THANX = = == ===MARK

    Hot tips on exhaust tips? 850

    i have a Chrome plated rolled edge 4" oval tip.

    I do not know what brand it is, I had it installed at a muffler shop when i had a custom cat-back system done. I picked the tip out of a catalog they had and it was delivered from the local muffler wholesaler i guess, and it showed up about 1 hour after they ordered it.

    I did not want a round tip like the S70 becausae my car is a 850, lasst of the true square volvo's in my opinion. I wanted a square or oval tip to accent the car. I think it cost about 40.00 and looks great.

    FYI, i had a magnaflow aluminumized muffler w/ lifetime warrenty installed and relocated to behind the rear tire where the exhaust originally exited the car. 2 1/2 pipe, muffler, tip, installation, etc. cost me about 275.00
    they cut the original exhaust system hangers off the old pipe/muffler and welded them to the new system so I retained all original mounting hardware and can easily remove the system by unbolting it from the rear of the catalytic convertor if i ever need to.
