Default Recommendation for Exhaust Tip

I'm getting ready to do the Magnaflow mod that seems so popular. I'd like opinions on the tips.

I'm not as young as many of you (46) but I still have testosterone and like a slightly aggressive exhaust note and bigger tips. I'm afraid the 4" tips might seem a bit big...the 3" not that different than stock, so 3.5" seems a good compromise. HOWEVEVER, I like the Double Wall, Angle-Cut, and I can only find it in 3" and 4" (please tell me there is a 3.5"!) So, should I go a) 3" angle cut; b) 3.5" straight cut; or c) 4" angle cut.

Default I'm an old, boring guy, but I don't think 4" OD looks too big if double walled. The ID is...

what looks silly to me when it gets too big. Yet, if it were me, I might try to find a 3.5 that I liked.

Just don't have them stick out too much. Too showy.
