2025 Gladiator Nighthawk
Hi all, newbie here. I purchased my first Jeep Gladiator yesterday ( First Jeep product actually). I bought a 2025 Gladiator Nighthawk. It has the tow package. I will be towing my BassCat bass boat with it. I would like to put a small black exhaust tip on it. I think it’ll look good since everything‘s blacked out. Just wondering what size you guys recommend since the exhaust tip angles downward. I don’t want it to look stupid. That, and I’ll be adding a hard Tonnneau cover and some other small things for my first accessorizing. I have a feeling I’ll be spending a lot of extra money on this thing.

I cut my rear resonator/tail pipe off within hours of picking up from the dealer. If memory servese right, the tailpipe doesn't really provide a good angle for a "tip".

I'd just get some High temp grill paint and spray it

did this make any difference to the sound? I removed everything and added a borla muffler and it was so mind numbing in teh cab i had to put the stock exhaust back on and never looked back. I loved the sound just not teh passenger complaints. Teh drone was so bad at 2k RPM it would literally cancel out the sound of voices in the cab. It was funny and equally annoying.

As far as the cover goes-I really like my Mopar hard cover. It sits flush and seems to keep the majority of the rain out. Costs a little more, but with it IMO.

The resonator delete was more for looks.

I went with the AWE Trail catback and love it, zero drone and some sound when you get above 3500-4000 rpm. I also install the AWE loop delete too
