Mine will be repainted soon, might go with a darker gold or go black, or keep them the same color.

Dude, that car is way too nice to have that muffler on there, IMHO. The wheels look awesome as they sit. Why not spend the money on a new muffler instead

Just my stupid opinion. Please don't take offence!

originally the exhaust system was built for this car







Its hard to tell in the pics but the car had the Mariah ground effects kit and the rear muffler fit soo beautifully with the rear skirt.
The way the tips swept up and everything was perfect.
It would also shoot my flames on an upward angle.

Now before you flame the car please realize this was over 2 years ago now, I started on the car around 3 years ago.
The muffler is welded to the rest of my system and until I get around $250 for a new muffler and exhaust work I'm kinda stuck with it.

but since the pictures above I did do some work to suck the muffler up closer to the bumper and was contemplating cutting the tips right before they turn up.

maybe tommorrow I will be able to post some more recent photos.
Also when you see the rims now you will see why they need to have something done to them, the clear coat is toast.

That's one of the best mufflers for FB's imo. Stock dual tip style, larger diameter, and the angled tips fit the car perfect IMO.

I usually put mine closer to the body, tho.

sorry, not a big fan of the wing, but the tail lights being sprayed looks pretty sweet, and i'm not very partial to gold rims. But, it is stilll a very clean looking car....and i noticed your power antenna works, that rare. hehe
