Some New Pictures!!

The Satin Silver is mine and it has some mods.The Sundance Gold is my old CL but now my brothers! He took it off my hands mainly because I wanted to keep it in the family! Mine (03 6spd Non-Nav) Brothers (01 Auto With Navi). My brothers only mods are the grill (that I made) and a CAI

Two Shots of mine!




My Wheel Gap...



His Wheel Gap...



And now just some shots.

Good idea with the exhuast but shorten it somewhere man. It looks silly sticking out that far.

The camera I had to use kinda sucked i know, but oh well. There are two or three good pictures out of the bunch.

My exhaust doesnt really stick out I think it is more less the angle the shot is from.

I love having another CL-S in the family but he isnt into the car near as much as I am.

Thanks for the coments guys, negative and positive.

Looks really good. I think your car looks better with your stock wheels than your Falkens. For some reason, for SSM, it looks killer when it's slammed, with stock wheels.

I sold my Falken's

The ride quality was just 10 times better! When I would get to higher speeds the car would always shake and raddle. But when I put the Stockies back on it stopped.

I dont really have a plan, im just more less going with the flow of what i feel. If I see a set of wheels that catch my eye I may jump on them. For now im just stickin with the stock wheels. I think they look great!

It's true, the stock neuspeed exhaust tips were nasty looking and they stuck out like 3 to 4 inches. I also wanted to try to get back to the stock look. I like the oval tip! it's niiiice.

I noticed that you have the Tein Basic coilovers. Will they allow you to go any lower? My friend had the SS' on his '02 Civic, and when they were dropped all the way, he still had like a 1.5 finger gap.

Just to replace the tips? Not much at all, $50 i think. The exhaust it self I got from another member on the site brand new for only $500. I know I got a sweet deal on it. It retails for about a grand.

Ill try to get some better pictures. I know I wont be able to take any today, I work all damn day from 9-9 but i might be able to tomorrow.

the tips stick out a little but not to much. I asked the guy at the exhaust shop about it and he said he put them out a little so the exhaust fumes dont turn my bumper black. And I was okay with that, cuz i think it looks good.

Kudos on the oval exhaust idea. I've thought about this approach myself since I love the exhaust tips but would like a little more sound out of the exhaust. Very cool.

That's exactly where I was leading to when I asked the guy about liking flushed tips.

My uncle has a Dodge Ram with the Cummin's turbo diesel. He cut his exhaust tip off so it was flush with the side, it melted his tail light and fried off all the paint from that spot.

I do have the nuespeed exhaust tips if someone wants to buy them! They are a little scratched up on the bottom but you cant even see it. I didnt know they were scratched up untill I had them taken off. Ill let em go for only $50.
