I think it looks good, with one exception....is it optical illusion, or are the exhaust tips slightly crooked ( pointing up and towards each other.)?

I agree but if you like it, that's all that counts.

When I did my exhaust, I debated on going quads but doing a mockup showed that the openings were just too small and going to a type-s bumper just wasn't worth the effort.

sorry didnt have my camera at the time, but he just made two custom y pipes and fit them till it was right then put the chrome tips over and welded it all up. cost over 100$ for the fab work. it wouldnt have cost so much if i had done it when i got the custom catback, but wasnt thinkin bout quads at the time. so he had little room to work with.

Good for you for being original. Its doesn't look bad. I mean the shop had alot less time to do the tips then the people had for the current exhausts for sale for our cars. So I would say its not bad at all. Did you get a full straight pipe or did they just do the mufflers for you??

its runs from the j pipe back, no third cat. really does make a difference in the power. i am lucky that my muffler guy does his own cirlcle track race car so he has good knowledge of wat can be done

You guys all talk about magnaflow, comptech, HKS, and ATLP there are so many other mufflers out there you can custom make for your car. I have sebring tuning mufflers and soon to get quad tips and these are some crazy ass mufflers i gotta tell you.
