Need Exhaust pics Please!

Hello all, I am debating if I should get a custom exhaust w/ magnaflow mufflers or just get the comptech or hks.(or just stay stock) I went to a few muffler shops and they said they could not make a axle-back system for me. PLease post some rear pics of the HKS or Comptech if you have any. I would appreciate it. By the way I have an 03 CL-S.

Well, I have a TL-S with the Comptech's, but it should be similar enough to give you an idea. If not, you can try a search or check the gallery.

My pics are linked in my sig.

Has anyone looked into the A'PEXi World Sport Cat Back Exhaust. These full cat back systems are constructed with SUS T-304 stainless steel canister and tip. Aluminized steel piping statically treated with titanium power coat. These cat back exhaust systems are also engineered to produce strong mid to top end power for high responsive feel.

CL Type-S "Part #APEX-104-KH23"

The price is very close to that of an Axle-Back Comptech

Thanks everyone for all the pics. Here are my issues:
Comptech- the tips look like they point down some and the cost seems to high for two mufflers.
HKS- I like the overall look, but the cans are to big for my taste and they seem to hang a little low like my girl's apex-i WS on her accord.

If anyone has a rear end shot of the comptech on a non- lowered 03 model that would be great. Again thanks for the pics and comments.

The Comptechs do not point down. I know they are pricey. Cost of a muffler is about $150-$200/muffler...for a good one, anyway...also, expect about $100 install on your car for customs.

HKS are nice...more reasonably priced...you can fix the hanging, by playing with the hangars and the rubber holders.
