The only problem I had was that the one header came in bent. I sent it back to Jet-hot and they sent me a new one right out.

We are "Grandfathered" when they insp. our rides in N.Y. They basically perform a saftey check.... Head lights Hi/Lo, signals, brakes and break lights, tire tread depth and so on. If you need a place to perform this type of insp. contact me I've never been busted for the pipes !

I remember when I first put on my side pipes…
It really changes your cars personality
They look great…and I agree those are the right wheels
Did you put mufflers in the pipes?
Enjoy…
