I ordered the FRPP/Borla exhaust (the loud ones) and they might come in tomorrow. I am going to try to install them myself, but I am not sure if I will be able to since I have not very mechanically inclined.

What is a reasonable price to pay to get the axle back's installed? It seems like it shouldn't be too much, but i just want to know so I don't get ripped off if I end up getting them installed.

Come on man...get underneath and install them yourself. You could teach a monkey to install an axleback kit on these cars...


Just try it and ask questions if you get stuck.

If you have a basic metric socket set or even some metric wrenches you can install them. You might pay an hours labor to get them installed locally if you dont want to try it. It really is pretty easy. If you can install a spare tire you could put on the mufflers.

GOOD LUCK!

and this.

If you can open your car door you can change your mufflers out. You gotta learn sometime, this is very basic

do they need locktite on each screw or if properly tighten it is not necessary? I put my slp's without trouble, but I did not use locktite, if needed, high temp or just high strength??
I am always worried I'll lose an Slp when I am on the road.
Thanks! great buy the borlas!! congrats!
they are easy to install!

Here's a 'real world' write up in addition to the factory PDF instructions that dustindu4 posted.

It's a Flowmaster install, but the directions are the same.
