Default I want new stuff - opinions please

Ok so I have the itch to buy something for my car... I was thinking about a few things

- Flowmaster American Thunder axle backs (I currently have Pypes X-pipe with GT take off mufflers)
Im not sure if they are going to be a big enough improvement on sound over the GT take offs. Anybody know?

-Boom tubes? They sound LOUD! Does anybody recommend these?
Heres a link to them. Theres youtube clips out there on them.

-GT rocker panels

-GT front fascia with grill and foglights


WHICH ONE?? I can't decide....

V6 chin spoiler. leave the GT grill to the GT's.
if your car is black, then get some aftermarket rocker panels that will be noticed more. i don't think the black GT rocker panel will look much diff than the stock v6 if its black on black. just my opinion though.

I don't really care for the V6 front fascia. Just my opinion, but I planned on changing sooner or later.
thanks for the input, but no chin spoiler for me.

Get the GT front end then. Sounds like a good plan.

You could get dual MACs and have resonators installed (too much drone without them).. and you will have one badass sounding 6er.

What do you guys think of the Flowmaster ATs? Are they loud?

The GT front end is a nice upgrade. Much nicer than the V6 bumper in my opinion. If you do it, do the rockers right away. I didn't and the car does not look right with the black rockers and big GT bumper.

but he has a black car. The rockers should look ok with the gt front bumper.

Personally...I like the 6 front bumper with a decent chin spoiler and duals on the stock back v6 bumper (cut out). Especially on a black car. Looks nice and old school.

I have a dual Flowmaster Super 44. I'm very please with this setup. It growls, loud, and it just sounds amazing.
