Camel just got a JCW present!

Today Camel got something put on that I've wanted for a very long time. A bloody beautiful (second hand) JCW Exhaust, $375 fitted.

I really cant say if it sounds better than the stock exhaust, but it's definitely different. I absolutely love the looks of it, JCW has the best exhaust tips out there, hands down. As for the 2 new gonads under the car, I'm sure I'll get used to the size, may even polish them back to spiff.

Although the exhaust is extremely quiet at idle - cant even hear the engine, it growls pretty good under load. A very non conspicuous growl, but very smooth sounding.

I'm definitely pleased with it, especially considering the decent price. Very worth it.

Thanks to Steves Auto Clinic for the job (done in 24 minutes).
Thanks to Armen for the Exhaust.

Clover... where are you in the country by the way? Just curious (I am pretty sure there is a thread for it but I am too lazy, and maybe to much liquid encouragement to check...)

Chris,

I'm in FL, headed back up to Birmingham, AL in a few days to hang with YuccaPatrol & his fiancee, before heading on up to the Dragon...YAY!

Here's a thread where I am supposed to be keeping up with my travels (but I've been a bit remiss, lately, tee hee!):https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...ad.php?t=40762

Pure deduction on my part, Mr. Camel, based on prior threads.
