Hi All,

I just got my car back from the shop at Paul Petrone in queens.. Took a little while.. but finally got it back.. Looks great as expected. I had my trunk, trunk finisher, rear m5 bumper, front drivers side fender and my hood painted. So far matches pretty well. Shop was very nice.. however they did steal my quarters from my coin / ashtry area.. and my car colonge. Whatever... Next time I know to take everything from the car.


After I picked up the car, went over to American Muffler, By roosevelt field mall. They did my quad tip exhaust. Took a little while to do, but roughly 4 hours.

Charged me about 400 for the labor and piping. I think it was a little more than I thought, but I'm happy with it and I wanted the exhausts to be installed pronto after I got the car.


All the parts for the quads are thanks to Jordan23junkee and Eugene134. Jordan23junkee advised me on what to buy and where to buy. Thanks man!! And I was able to get the rear m5 bumper from Eugene, he lives like 10 minutes from me so he dropped it off himself. Thank you too!!

Also thanks to Calton / C's bimmer for the muffler shop. They guys were cool and was able to get what I needed done.



So the exhaust setup is:

Magnaflow X-pipe
2 Borla Pro Xs Mufflers
2 Vibrant dual tip's. (forgot the size)


And here are the pictures. BTW, this was before they finished welding everything. I snuck under and snapped some pictures before they continued. They just placed everything and wanted to make sure it looked fine for me.

I wanted the tips to be wider, but the darn Battery box was stopping me from doing that. Oh wellz.

Like I said, the pictures are right before they started welding everything together.

I'll try to do a sound clip soon, but it sounds just like the other people with Borla Pro XS exhaust's. (jordan23junkee)

Enjoy the pics all.

Mods complete for now. I still have to install the sprint booster and other minor accessories in the car (LED bulbs).

Darn you caught me... heh.

But, i did order that model / type from here,

http://fasterthanthem.com/product.php?prod...at=0&page=1

That's the same description. They are slightly oval-ey... but hard to tell. Either way.. its there and there's nothing I can do about it.

I wish they were oval-ey like the m5 aftermarket exhausts.. I can't spell it so I dont want to type it and look like a douche... haha.
