Default Replaced Muff elims....

UPDATE WITH PICS BELOW, THANKS TO VETTE DREAMER!

________________________________________ __________________

After 3 years it was time for a change, also, with add of x-pipe and 3.73's she was just too loud on the interstate! Put Magnaflow stainless on, much more refined sound but will get a little more loud after breakin, and they look great! :thumbs:

Seems like a whole new vette, like after any mod! :D

Magna flows are the best looking in my opinion. Good sound too. :thumbs:

Dreamer,

Though my car is in red, I gotta say. White looks fantastic, it's got a very clean and rich look to it.

Beautiful car...love the mufflers.

Looks Great!!!

Just two questions?
1. Did you replace your x-pipe? and if so with what?

2. Where and how much for a set of mufflers like those?

Yeah, I agree after I have seen Beautiful Beast's White vette. He kept it in really good shape. I always thought my car was in good shape for a 95 with 75k miles, but after seeing BBeast's car, which is virtually same milage, same year, his car looks better. OH, love those mufflers.
