Lol, too funny
Lights look good Roxx, did you change the lenses too?
Probably be happy you nixed the LEDs, sometimes less is more

 

I did, my current Nismo cap has been painted to match the custom purple. The ARC cap will match the cap on my combo can but the Top Secret is the multi color anniversary cap with purple in it which I think will still pull everything together. I'll try and upload pics tomorrow but I'm having iPad issues.

It was mostly an accident and I just happened across the ARC. I already had a guy on tap that wanted to trade away his TS but only for an ARC cap. I still have feelers out. If i can source anything else I'll let you know.

That's who's doing the work?

 

Kept the same lenses. We tryed the LEDs to start and they looked really, really nice and simple as day time runners (you can see where the holes are drilled at the top of the light) but in the dark they looked a little obnoxious. Think I'm going to like this build a lot since I had the amber light rewired to only come on with the turn signals, I think that with the switchbacks will look tough. Not to mention just the halos and fogs is going to look pretty fresh at night if I do say so myself! Haha excuse how excited I am but custom headlights were one of the things that made me fall in love with Gs! Coming from being someone who was into mostly Subarus, I really liked custom headlights, but nothing came close to looking as cool as blacked out G lights!

 

Oh man... so pretty. Such fine craftsmanship.

 

I remember those days. Are you surprised to see sebring tuning on the cans?

 

A little bit, yeah. If anything, I was expecting to see that on the tips, because I heard Sebring was their supplier for tips. But they actually have the Fast Intentions logo etched into the tips, and "Sebring Tuning" etched into the top of the mufflers.

 

Me too! Even though it wasn't all that long ago. I was kind of surprised to see that on the cans. I too was impressed that there are no visible welds on the cans. It looks really sharp. I had a 5.0 Mustang years ago with 2 chamber Flowmasters (wound up having hearing trouble for the first two weeks I had the car it was so loud) and they had visible welds on the edges. Maybe Sebring grinds the welds before they polish.


Interesting. Mine did not have the FI logo but they did have the letters "Fast Intentions" stamped into them. I'm guessing FI OEM's the tips from them. They look quite fine and the little F logo is a nice touch. It seems like quite a bit of work goes into manufacturing the tips, and the cans for that matter. The X-pipe is really nice...I'm glad they went to that design instead of the Magnaflow. Look with a flashlight down the X-pipe and you can see the opening between the two pipes...pretty interesting. I'll be stalking the chat thread and build thread for the install date.

@roxx, those headlights came out really nice! Looking forward to seeing them installed on your car! Little silver terminator man robot looks cool...I'd be tempted to jack it and put it in my garage...lol.

 

Hey guys! The lights came out great, here is are a pic and a video running through them. All parts and one day installation only cost me $300 so if anyone's in the New England area, be sure to check out The Lighting Guru! Only thing is that when I went back to get my car, the little robot was gone...

Those look really nice roxx! Wish there was a lighting guru in my area. $300 bones isn't bad at all. Do they sell those switchback rings?

Only think I would suggest is all swapping the turn signal bulb for LED also so the blink pattern matches. I'm impressed, nice work!

 

Congrats on the headlight work Roxx, very nice job and at a great price IMO.

John, those pipes look great, in for the install pics and of course your critique.

 

Where is the best place to pick up LED bulbs for my fogs and turn signals? Looking for good quality and reasonable price.

 

Theretrofitsource.com for any type of retrofit supplies and best quality and variety of bulbs etc.

And www.VLEDS.com for turn signal leds and not only, may be pricey but those are definitely worth it, check out Triton V3 LEDs with built in resistors, it's plug n play and they have adjustable focal point

 

why is there only 1 hanger on the mufflers? Theres 2 stock hanging/mounting points on just about every exhaust I've seen but these

 

Looks SO NICE John! Whats it been like a year LOL

I knew they used the Sebring cans in the early systems but didn't know they still did. I Was going to get just the cans for mine before I went ARK.

Cant wait to finally see this on the car just in time for summer!!

 

something on the way for me for my wheels
