modding behind my dad's back

Hi everyone, I'm an Asian teen that lives with a dad that doesn't understand/approve of particular mods. But I just bought a 5ZIGEN Fireball Mega exhaust and will be getting it installed as soon as it comes in Any ideas where to hide my stock exhaust?

Your dad is going to notice the look and sound of the 5Zigen, so be sure to save the OEM setup for later, perhaps under your bed. Fold the shipping boxes flat, too, so you can send me the 5Zigen when I rescue you by buying it before your Dad kicks you to the gutter and eliminates you from the family.

Your dad is definitely going to notice the 5zigen. Having owned one myself for my RL, he will have to be nearly deaf not to notice the difference. You'll likely have to put the OEM exhaust back on.

The exhaust is about 7 feet long, as you know. I hope you have a long bed with a good bed skirt or whatever they call it. Yea, he would have to be deaf and blind. The tips are quite different.

Gosh, asian kids these days. I'm not trying to hate on you guys because I'm asian too, but seriously?

And tnyrl, please use English when typing, you're not talking to a bunch of your friends on AIM here, so at least make yourself presentable towards the RL community.

eh whatever, he'll get over it when he hears it. tell him it will make him cooler.
and put some practical spin on it and tell him that its better for the car, cause it
allows for better engine air flow and that you're prolonging the life of the engine
by letting it breathe better. its securing his investment.
