    How's it sound?
    It's a universal Magnaflow muffler. I like it, I can't say I love it. It was a good deal though, I ended up playing around $200 for the muffler and the install.

    Here's a sound clip - http://www.r3vlimited.com/Media/Sounds/magna.wav

        Hey I have a question. What kind of rear bumper is that? It looks like you added something to the bottom of the rear bumper there?

          Definitely stock rear bumper, stock rear valence.

              The rear looks too low in that picture above. You should add or double up spring pads in the rear.

                Yea, that's the general consensus.

                    Do you plan on raising it a tad in the rear? Or are you rollin' low?

                          exhaust sounds good, sounds like it is made to be raced.

                              I'll get a pic for you tomorrow. I don't think its too extreme.

                                Hey jweb your car looks awesome! Very clean and straight.
                                I ordered a set of Ronals three weeks ago and can't wait for them to arrive.
                                I was thinking about going 205/50 front and 225/50 rear, any thoughts guys?
                                BTW, the BMW center cap roundels fit perfect too if you want to give her that factory look.
