Re: August COTM ** Winner **
I would love to see the back in some pics. Sounds like you did some work on a diffuser and tail pipe tips (Actually I have always been interested in true duals, but I am not tackling that animal). A few more pics would be awesome. Thanks and congrats. Dan

Re: August COTM ** Winner **
first let me say that has to be one of the best looking thirdgens i've ever seen.
that interior swap is amazing.
quick question though, in the picture of the blue and grey thirdgens, what kind of exhaust is on the grey one?
