Oh today was a sonofabitch day. put 2 of the mounts on to replace 2 busted ones b/c i had the time. I kinda had to put it on hold most of the day b/c there were alot of other cars comming in and out of the shop.

I'm a tire tech at a Big 10 store here in Birmingham, Al so i get to use all the goodies and got a hook up on Snap-On tools. I did get to use that new breaker bar and torque wrench today though!

I'd be posting pics, but I can't seem to find my micro SD adapter. Someone must have commandeered it. Gah

Heres a current pic that I have hosted

yeah go ahead and flame the exhaust. It's the real HKS but thats going away soon in favor of a straight tip from a boorla xr-1 race muffler.

**LowZX3on17s** · 08-14-2008, 11:37 PM

I like it.. It is real clean with that euro grill, the exhaust also has a great sound to it...

**SVTgirliegirl** · 08-15-2008, 12:06 PM

I think that the exhaust looks good. I really like your wheels too.

**jimbone** · 08-15-2008, 12:12 PM

**gateguardian** · 08-15-2008, 12:32 PM

**CaysE** · 08-15-2008, 02:04 PM

The wheels and grille really make a big difference for the better.

**1badassfoci** · 08-16-2008, 04:00 AM

Thanks guys. The wheels are Maxxim Guilts 17x7 +40 offset wrapped in 215/45/17 BF Goodrich G-Force Sports. Maxxim is a Konig company.

The Exhaust is a HKS Hi-Power Flex Back. Definatly got quieter when I put the catalytic converter back on.

**DeadlyDean** · 08-18-2008, 04:37 PM
