Cheap mods to exhaust? (03 TL)

I am the proud owner of a 2003 TL. Bought it around 6 months ago as my first car and have loved it since. I've attached some photos of what it used to look like vs. what it looks like now. My question for you guys would be, what is a CHEAP modification to make my exhaust even just a little louder? I don't want it to wake the neighbors when I start it up at 3 in the morning but I want it to have some sound. (Budget is $300 or less)

What do you guys think about mid Muffler Delete with cherry bomb glasspack welded on in place of the stock mufflers? Thinking about doing this or mid delete with straight pipes. Had hogzaust mod in my Subaru and have a lovely deep sound.

Just straight pipe it no need to remove the mid muffler... or Add any mufflers for that matter. All of this cost me less than 100 bucks:
