Exhaust resonator tip

Just wondering if anyone ever experienced a resonator tip that adds a deep sound kinda like a cat back exhaust. I just dont want to get a completely new exhaust just in case it would void my warranty cuz i have a 2013 fit. i know that its not going to be as loud as a performance exhaust but just something to deepen the sound. does anyone know the size pipe, or any brand with good exhaust tips with deep sound?

A tip fastened to your tailpipe is not going to deepen the exhaust sound at all. There is no such thing as a "resonator tip". A resonator is one thing, an exhaust tip is another. You might be able to find something called a "resonator tip" being sold on eBay or somewhere else on the Internet, but if so they are just a scam.

I wouldn't add exhaust just for sound anyway...and I might catch some heat for this but I have heard only a handful of Hondas that sound good (IMO) with exhaust work.

But basically our Hondas, and most cars have this exhaust set up:
Engine to:
1) Manifold; You can change these to "headers" but doubt a fit would gain much for the high cost
2) Catalyst system; This is the best overall mod you can do that will increase power and isn't super expensive for most cars, however I'll admit I do not know how Fits react to this mod. Also, depending on where you live modifications can be illegal.
3) Catback; Basically everything after the catalyst. Piping runs to the mufflers, then the exhaust tips. Not a whole lot of power to be had here, if you want to change the sound of your car this is where you would do it.
