Jelly? Not at all. I don't like rasp, though I've heard that the power gains are nice.

Yea. I know they'll sound like shit but I'm hoping to snag up an ATLP or XLR8 over the summer.

Catback won't cure the rasp, it'll make it worse. You'll need a big ol' resonator to hold back the rasp.

The guy I got my ATLP Base from had pre-cat deletes, j-pipe, race pipe, and catback, and it sounded like nails in a metal can being shaken. Absolute shit

Yea, I figured I'd need to upgrade my resonator. But Brandon has this same setup (PCDs and XLR8 exhaust) and I thought it sounded great.

Grill looks perfect. That's just how I did mine too, and it still looks like the day I did it.

Looks awesome Ross! Are you still thinking about paint matching the shield to the body? I remember you posting a pic of that part dipped white but it didn't match up properly

Your window visors look satin instead of gloss. Interesting.

And thanks Tyler. The visors are just faded from the sun. I need to take them off and paint them so they're shiny again.
