exhaust tips are a great idea...
my only question is there an aftermarket exhaust tip kit that isn't permanent- ie can be installed yourself (maybe by just fitting on top of the stock ones) and that doesn't have to be welded on? that would be nice in case some day u sell the car or get sick of the look and want to go back to stock.
does anyone know?

New exhaust tips have to welded on.
My muffler shop had to cut the old tips off and weld new tips on. The stock tips HAVE to be cut off since they're put on very, very well from the factory.
Not a DIY if you ask me. Labor isn't too bad.

Look at it this way it is much less expensive than exhaust finishers and the tips look pretty damn fly.
You wouldn't want a set that just slid over the stock tips because they would eventually rattle.
After you had the tips replaced you it would be unlikely that you would want to go back.

Looks great. It's suprisingly easy to do this with the OE exhaust still mounted to the car. Just remove the right and left trim around the exhaust tips. Then cut the OE tips off, size up and fit on the new tips.
Here are the tips I had installed. It only cost me $45 to have the two tips installed. The tips were vendor samples from my last job. (Loved 'dem perks)

I like my car quiet but when I step on it, but then I expect rotary engine noise not the crappy exhaust sound from the back.
Thats what makes the car cheap.
