Car looks clean but honestly I think your exhaust is a little out there.

As far as power mods I highly recommend doing the BOP and NWP Spacers. You'll notice a significant power gain up top with the BOP and all throughout with the spacers.

By out there you mean too long? I think Ill do BOp first as i think the guy making them is gonna make spacers soon too...maybe making it more affordable.

I think the pipes look a little too low, and don't meet up with the bumper as well as they could...

I see what it is, the taper from right to left isn't there like on the stock tails...both tails stick out the same, and it just looks a little off...

The stock tails, taper with the shape of the bumper, outer pipe is slightly shorter then the inner pipe of the pair.
Thus inline with the bumper.
The illusion is that they are both the same length, since they both have a similar resting point with the bumper.
They also have the slant taper, which again, aligns with the shape of the bumper.

You're are both the same length pipe, so it makes the outer pipe look longer since they don't taper with the curve of the bumper.
They are also flat, so no contour...makes them look like they stick out too much.

I'll rob a picture of this guys car for an example...

Like in this Picture, it looks like the outer pipes are lower, even though they probably aren't.

Ride's clean and I agree that the mufflers need to be changed. It just doesn't look right IMO

I agree. You will not find a higher quality BOP or Thermal Intake Spacer Kit than with NWP Engineering. Our Spacers are time tested as well as dyno proven with hundreds of R&D hours invested. Our product quality and level of customer service is by far the best you'll find.

I have the NWP spacers and love them. Great power in the mid-band, you won't be sorry.

You mentioned new rims. I have the same rims you do. I sanded mine down, primed a couple of times, couple coats of black and a final coat of clear coat. I get compliments often and the best part is if I kiss the curb with my tire, it's easily touched up. My max is black so it's black on black.

Not sure if black would be a good match for you but thinking about painting your rims before dropping some $$$ on new rims.
