Pics and Vid: Latest Mods (Sorry 56K)

Well, here are some pics of my latest mods... Basically, I put on black projectors a few weeks ago, painted the SS badges on the side, did a shitty job painting the front bowtie, cut the stock antenna down, and today I got a dual outlet exhaust installed.


Projectors and painted badges:



Exhaust cut-out (not perfect, but I still like it):








How she looked stock:


How she looks today:





And a quick video of how she sounds... idle and rev:

Video doesn't really do it justice, as expected. It's quieter and a throatier than perceived through my camera. It's not very loud at idle and still not extremely loud at all at WOT, but I actually love the sound of it. It's got two Magnaflow mufflers and 4" stainless tips.

Thanks everybody!

The mufflers were about $145.
The tips were about $50.
The install was $180.

Grand total? $375 give or take a few bucks.

^Two of those bad boys are what put a smile on my face. Note: GM tips have a 2.25 inlet, and I'm not sure what size all the piping is on the GMPP catback.
