the reflectors on the fog lights are pretty bad. i wouldn't recommend driving around with them on if you have HID's: way too much glare.

Can you post a video ? As far as I understand you've got a magnaflow muffler and no resonator now ?

how do you guys think 2 glass pack cherry bomb mufflers with resonator delete and 4 inch tips would sound on a 535?

okay guys, so I had my cherry bomb glasspack mufflers installed today. Here are two pics. The only thing I didn't pull the trigger on was the resonator delete. I like how it sounds and the mechanic said it sounds good, I do wanna go louder by removing the resonator but what kind of sound will I get, I want something deep and not high pitch like a cheap ass honda civic. he told me to drive it around for a week and break in the mufflers since they will get loud, but I am kinda leaning towards the delete. advice?

delete? i straight-piped mine after the cats to the mufflers at the end near the bumper. only really hear it at low rpms or if i throttle it really high. I'll have to make a video and post it on here soon.

yeah, in the first pic you'll see the cats before the cherry bomb, was thinking of deleting them.
