Angled cut looks better IMO. It's close though.

I know performance wise angled exhaust is supposed to be better beacause there's one less bend in the piping.. But personally i cant stand the way an angled pipe looks sticking out of the back of a car it just doesn't look right to me... So STRAIGHT FTW!!!

I've got the angle cut on my Performance cat-back, and I like the way it comes in with the curve of the bumper better. If you have an SS/SC you might prefer the straight tip due to the lower valance on the rear bumper.
