R58 aftermarket exhaust CNT

I just wanted to post how happy I am with the new exhaust CNT sent out to me, got it on yesterday and bigger 3 inch tips are very attractive, and nice low growl, from such a small car! Also noticeable difference in pickup......feels like its in sports mode when it's not! I didnt want to drop 1200$, so I got this stainless setup which has beautiful welding, very nice quality work! Boyfriend followed me on highway and said it sounds so good when I go to pass someone, also sound awesome slowing down......puts a smile on my face!

That looks good. It looks very similar to the Invidia Q300 I just bought for my coupe...but at half price haha.

I also have the exact same color schemed car...Eclipse Grey w/ Sport Package??

Love the tips on that thing.

Nice, I promised myself I wouldn't do anything to the car...but I knew I was lying to myself lol.

I ordered my catch can awhile ago...it's backordered

I also already had the Forge FMIC, makes a huge difference in the summer heat!

I was thinking about blacking out the car, did that with my R50
but I actually like it now, it breaks up the car a bit, draws eyes to the already weird shape....which I love

Have yet to see one on the road, I've had the car for almost 3 months now!
