Exhaust (magnaflow) and headlight questions

1) This past weekend I had magnaflow mufflers put on to be honest the difference in sound is almost un noticable. When I went into the exhaust shop I was most worried about the noise being TO LOUD which I mentioned to him. I know he just changed the piping from the Y pipe to the mufflers, not sure if he opened it to 2.5 or not. Anyways I was wondering what could be done to add a little more noise. PS. LOVE the look tho.

2) I reciently got my front bumper relaced and when I got the car back the right headlight has a purple/pink tint to it. I asked the body shop who is a close childhood friend and he said that they did nothing with the head lights. Any idea what this could be from, if its blown, but I still wouldnt understand why it would turn purple/pink.
Thanks again guys for your imput.

Get a smaller resonator, I assume you have stock resonator.

I'd get at least an 18. I've got a 22 right now and have too much noise in the cabin. Going to attempt to get a 14 put in front of the 22.
