the exhaust does stick out 2in from the stock exhaust but that was the look i wanted so you know its there,at low speed it feels stock its really not to loud but on the highway from 60-90mph it has a good feel lots of pull feels faster also,i got the borla cause i got a great deal on it and to me it was worth it but if you want loud then its not for you but to me its want i was looking for so im real happy with it.

i tried to listen to my fellow members and did the grill black,you can still see the chrome factory grill it was getting late so i didn't have time to paint it but it will be fixed this week.

after seen your car, im debating whether to get 20s or 22s.. the price is not an issue.. i want look and performance. .as well as quality.. what you think? any rubbing in the back? with passenger.. how about cornering? performance wise?

an aggressive 20" fit is the same as a weak fitted 22"...like a 8.5 +35 to +40 range offset.
22" is cool don't get me wrong, but in many ways it's un-needed weight. Your lookin at about 35 lbs a wheel and let's not forget the much more expensive tires in 22".
if your on a eibach drop, u should consider these: 20x9.5 +35 all around. U can maybe get 20x8.5 and 20.9.5 staggered, but not 20x9.5 all around.
