Corsa Extreme axle-back installed

Just finished this up this morning. Exhaust looks amazing, especially in the GT500 rear fascia. Sound is great too, no drone on the highway or low RPMs. When you get on it, it definitely goes to 11.

I just need to clean the tips up a little bit and snap some photos.

No, you need to screw cleaning the tips and post some vids!

Interesting that they have the tips rotated like that...definitely a small departure from the normal top to bottom slash cut.

Where are the vids man?

Haven't taken any yet. Here's one from youtube that is done really well:

Find my other thread for before & after pics. You can tell a difference when you look at them side by side. The GT500 has much more room on each side for tips, and the bottom is sculpted.

You're not the only one, I had to look at the other thread to see the difference.

Exhaust looks great! Can't wait till next spring when I start doing my mods

Are you going to adjust them to center the tips in the openings or do you like them as is?

That picture was taken before I adjusted them more.

You really like to nitpick people's work, don't you?

Yeah, they're a little bit louder than that, but only when you want them to be. At idle/cruise, they're very manageable.
