i know it looks funny without Quad exhaust right now, but i just got the bumper installed yesterday, thanks Eugene helped me had it installed
How hard a job was it to pull off the old cover and install the new M5 cover? Driveway job with normal tools? Can you describe what had to happen to make it work easily enough - or things that you would now do if doing another one? I am considering doing the same thing - and using the Magnaflow 2-in/2-out muffler with X-pipe inside like you have asked about. The mufflers at rear could be anything from simple resonators to something heavier/quieter... I also want low restriction - and the look - without excess noise or droning... Who has done this with low noise but HP as the ciriteria for muffler selection and can advise?

08white,
I strongly recommend Remus. Please don't ever go with either magnaflow or custom as it'll drone at certain RPM. For Remus, it never drones.
I had custom exhaust before and I couldn't bear the drone, so I changed it to Remus, thanks to Eddie. It now looks and sounds a lot better. Not loud at all, but roar on your demand
