Looks great, much better than before. I alsojust put new headlights in, about a week ago. Ithink gross yellowed headlights killthe look of the car.

looks so much cleaner and prettier I agree, those nasty old lights are going in the trash... the whole pass side was busted anyway...

they were on the to-do list, but just got bumped up to the top...

it sounds alright, sounds really good at 4 grand

but the previous owner changed the setup that was on it to a side pipe set up that exits right in front of the rear wheels, using Flowmaster Delta Force mufflers (pg 64 in the summit mag) so the drone gets to me, as well as all the smog due to my catless xpipe..

so I want to have it run back out the rear of the car again...
