Snow = Bad...Need Ideas haha

well few weeks ago i was going to work...and some idiot blew snow in the middle of the road and he was still at it ... so doing the turn i hit the snow drift from the idiots driveway...2 X 360... Back bumper hits snow wall... 180 ... the rest of the car slams in... get it out... not a scratch ... runs great ...

my problem ... exhaust is busted now... GMPP Touring CatBack... so guess what i need a new exhaust... anyone got any ideas on what i should get... any good Dual Exhaust systems out there or single ones better ?!

love to get point of vues on this ...

next would be should i enter Speed Sport 2009 Car Show this april... i've heard to many mixed comments about my car... so i figured i'd leave it up to the Cobalt Experts on CobaltSS.net to decide...so i'll put a poll up for you to vote...you can check out the mods and pics of my car in my VBgarage the links in my signature... interior is pretty much stock RECARO Seats and CF Trims...pretty much it

and if you have any other ideas for interesting mods i could do befor then let me know haha

if your gonna get a new exhaust system go dual man. it might have to be custom work but at least you won't have it dragging on the ground like it currently is! that **** is noticeable a km away.

put the car in the show it looks nice

Couldnt agree more, duals look terrable on our cars, go with a hahn catback if yours isnt fixable, A1 quality and nice sound, same price as a the GMPP with a larger pipe diameter

Jeremie I think your car looks great, and you should enter it in the show! oh and for the exhaust, how about you patch it up, and I'll buy it from you this summer so you can get yourself a new exhaust system :P

rob, it was his downpipe that was very low to the ground by the way, not his exhaust

oh **** i forgot about the exhaust.
where is it broken at?
i wouldnt do a dual cause then you gotta cut the rear bumper and hope that both sides would match and look like it should be there, kinda risky if you ask me.
the pacesetter exhaust is what i have, it cost me $310.00 for it and it founds great, when i 1st had it, it sounded like ass but it needed the work in, once it was worked in i liked it.
and i will pm you now.

i believe theres a gasket gone some where on the exhaust and the resonator i believe is damaged ... i sounds fine from the back it's just when your on the side you can hear its not how the GMPP should sound

just replace the gasket and see how it sounds, and then if the issue is still there, take the resonator off and weld a pipe in to replace it.

but i also agree with the sunroof decals, pear them off. they are like a cartoon style fount at that.
