yeah I dont know if many people saw the videos. But the exhaust does sound better than it did before with crush bent piping that was leaking lol.

Alot of people think I should make up outs in the bumper so it sits up higher/flush with the bumper. Any Ideas on how I could line it up, b/c in kinda scared to cut my rear bumper up.

Nope, don't cut it, I like it just the way it is...appearance wise. Something needs to be done about the raspiness in my opinion. I know that after I installed my aftermarket headers it got SOOOOOO loud, next thing I know I was back at the muffler shop getting a cat and res put in and a new quiet magnaflow. Was it hard to hang that muffler? Do you have pics of it before you installed it?

Get an RSX rear lip so it brings your rear end lines down a bit.

Is that an OEM 350Zmuffler? Or is it aftermarket for the 350Z? I think a stillen exhaust would sound nice on our cars.

I think if you got some rear mud guards it would help frame your exhaust and look nicer
