Aqua Hot exhaust tip....rusting thru

Any suggestions on replacing the subject exhaust tip now getting worse to a noticeable rusted hole.    Looks like it's welded on so obviously a bit more hassle than a bolt on.

A picture would help, but your description of it just being the tip should have the option of cutting it back a little and sliding a slightly larger diameter tip over it and clamping.

Probably can find a chrome exhaust tip at NAPA and as Craneman said cut off the old tip and put on the new one

You can replace any Aqua Hot exhaust pipe with a 2 inch one.
