Just wanted to show you guys some stuff .. Most people selling high end aftermarket parts are to "Busy" or what ever to clean them and then ask a better price. i got this cat back for $300 plus shipping, Retail is well over $1,000.. It took me a scrap of scotch bright pad, what was left in an empty can of WD-40 and half an hour to get these results..

I agree totally. I often see stuff on the for sale section that looks like crap. How about taking the time to clean it up for the next guy and actually get more $$ for it...

Nice job on yours !

Just a thought - I have the Corsa Daytona tips on my 04 CE - you don't see those around too much - might look nice on your car. Looking forward to seeing your car done !!!

Nothing new yet. Had a "friend" rip me off for almost a grand. Set back the project a bit.

But Breathless performance did good by me this week and sent me another set of rear brake vents. I fixed the first set I bought so if anybody is looking I have a new perfect set for $250 with the ducts.
