Here are some pics of mine. I am still installing the side exhaust so I don't have any outside pics yet.

Just finished the side exhaust today. It's absolutely awesome. If I had one mod to do it would be the side exhaust. Thunderous sound when wanted and no droning.

Do you have to remove the upper glass for these side scoops? Your car is sweet!

Th side scoop actually sticks to the glass so I am going to install some blackout tint on the inside of the window. I will be taking some more photos this week. I have the full Cervinis kit, but haven't installed the bumpers, hood, or ducktail as I am waiting on paint.

Do you have any issues with the exhaust gases coming into the car when the windows are rolled down and at a stop?

It depends on the direction of the wind. With the doors open it can be quite noticable, but at the drive thru it hasn't been bad at all. Thanks for bringing it up, its one thing I didn't think about until I had everything installed.

You guys might also watch out if you plan on lowering, with stock suspension and tires I have only 3.5in clearance on the exhaust. I have already ordered the Eibach Pro Kit and now I'm not sure what to do. It hit the other day while backing out of my driveway to fast. I figure after the Eibach kit there will only be 2in or so of clearance. That's kind of scary. I'm going to contact Cervinis and see if they have any kind of workaround or ideas on the subject.

Another thing to note is that once the exhaust is installed the car must be jacked with the rear shocks compressed so it means to install a new suspension I will have to remove 50% of the exhaust.

These are things I am a little disappointed Cervinis didn't discuss with me while I was talking to them about the kit.

After some spirited late-night driving I have another thing to add:

Under hard breaking/near abs there is a grinding noise. I assume it's from the drive shaft hitting the exhaust pipe. I will do a further inspection this week and post back with photos of the areas that are hitting. Wish these problems didn't exist. It's such a sweet exhaust system. Maybe a stiffer suspension will help.
