2 Newly Painted Cars

Took some pics with Topher the last night. He just got his car back from being painted. I got mine done about 6 months ago. Both painted by Performance Autobody in Manassas, VA.
Topher=CL
Forevafire=TL

Quality suffered a little as the night went on, but here ya go....enjoy!

Haha yeah man I wasn't so sure about it at first either. I told my exhaust guy to pick out somethin he knows would sound good. So he ordered these for me. They seemed HUGE at first, compared to other brands that other people have like Comptech, but they have actually really grown on me. I just had the mufflers put on and for just those and no cat back, it sounds very good Cat back will be soon though!

Topher was repainted by insurance claim due to some kids keying his car. Mine was repainted because the paint from prevous owner looked like shit! Not sure Topher's price but mine was somewhere between 2,400-2,600 can't remember.

Both are so damn Clean. They are on point for real.

Even if it is stock outside, it's just so eye catching to have such a clean car.

I went lipless too on stockies

I can be the white twin of your car!

Thanks bro! I'm guessing you live in or around richmond? Not really down that way very much but if you are ever in the area we should definitely meet up. Hit me up if you are every around too.

Great looking TL and CL. I actually think your stockies look very clean. You obviously take good care of your rims. IMO the stock 99-01 TL-P rims are the nicest looking 2G rims period they just need to be stretched to 17 or 18" and they'd look sick. I think your exhaust is a little too big with your 16" stocks and no body kit, but hey if you like it who cares. Great lookin' rides man.

Lose those rice cans ASAP. Not looking good at all. Get some magnaflows or somethin, but those gotta go. Paint looks good tho. Better quality pics would do it more justice tho.

hahahahahaha ^

They are magnaflows bro. Thanks for your opinion though, personally it took me a little to get used to but as for my opinion....I think it makes the rear end look sexyyyyyy.

Plus I think the pictures make them look a tad bit bigger, because in person the tips are the same size as the CL. Actually the CL's tips might actually be a little bit bigger but because mine are round and his are oval, it kinda makes mine look even bigger. Trust me, if I knew they weren't oval when my boy picked them out, I wouldn’t have got them but he hooked me up with a good price and i couldn't pass it up.

They are just temporary till I get custom cat-back made...then I'm gonna get EVEN BIGGER ONES! And I'm gonna have them coming out crooked, like one facing in and the other facing out. I really think it will set off the whole car. HAHAHAHA........NOT! Nah but for real I'll be getting some different ones once I get the cat-back put on, but for now these will do
