That's what I understand. It'll be interesting to see what it'll sound like at that point. I already enjoy the sound but deeper could be a good thing.

Fight on!

I don't know why there isn't a picture there. If you see a question mark below the post, try clicking on it. I think the video will pop up. If not, let me know and I'll try to PM it to you.

I had a buddy following me and he said he definitely hears a difference. So, I'm up in the air with the mid and y pipe. I don't want to change the sound. I'll figure it out after some more research. Did you change anything else?

Looks really nice back there, just take your driveway at a sharper angle to eliminate any scraping You'll need the practice if you plan on lowering it.
BTW, what rims are you looking at?

Thanks blnewt. I'm already lowered on the RWD Swift springs. I've been taking the driveway at an angle which really helps...haven't scraped yet.

As far as rims, because I tend to take clients in my G, I was looking towards 19's. I've been looking at the VMR 710's either silver or gunmetal. I'm just trying to figure out which color.

I've ordered gloss black vinyl so i plan to do my grill and possibly side chrome trim. Depending how this turns out, it may help me decide which color to go with. I hope so cause i can't seem to figure it out.

What do you think?
