Whatever it is it has cleaned the overspray off of the cars. Mine went today and I am completely happy. And they are only charging $100 a car. So my car is good again and I cancelled my body shop appointment next week.

A creamy polishing compound?????

Does me make it in the back room?????

My car was sold to some lady in the Columbus Ohio area. I just have pictures. I went to a local car show a few weeks ago and it brought back old memeories of her.

Yo Nick. I have considered them. While I believe they would look better then the amber I wasn't sure if they were legal in Ohio.

I found those splitters that a guy in Florida customed made. They are much better than those single splitters you see for sale. They are fiberglass. Some people like them some don't.

[QUOTE=tom281;5454163]OK, here are the comparison vids- both taken from the same distance, same volume, etc. All things as equal as I can make them.

Borla:



SLP:



At idle, the SLP isn't as loud as I thought it would be. It does have noticeable drone at 55-60mph but below that and over that the drone fades. The car in general rips at WOT- I kinda like it!

can I come over and hear these in person??

Me too and he never responded to me either. He was a funny guy when he wasn't pissed off about something.
