I think after the new wheels/tires, Eibach Pro Kit, and 2" stubby antenna, mine may finally look different at first glance, but I'm kind of a little scared to check :P
Haha hey man. You're definitely ahead of me in mods. IIRC you got tip A on this exhaust too right? I'm going to end up getting different springs also. I have been considering getting the stubby antenna though . Did you get the Perrin one?

Getting excited! I can't wait for mine to ship! Number 28 here. But it'll probably get here and I'll be the last one to install it (damn shipping to HI).

I would call and complain. UPS tries to redeliver 2 times if I'm not home for a signature package.

Or, pay with CC then file a chargeback once you get the exhaust (for the shipping charges, not the swift payment). At the very least it will charge them 25$ (standard fee for chargebacks to the creditor).

Everything looks good too, especially the type A tips!

Be careful on the clamp things. The edges are a little sharp - I cut my thumb on one of them.

BTW my order was 703.

edit:
Oh and this might be helpful. Packing list:
3 pipes in the long box, along with 3 clamps taped to each other.
The only thing in the big box is the muffler section.

I presume the factory hardware can be used to attach this exhaust to the factory header.
I think you were order number 10 then based on order number. I don't want to grumble too much because the exhaust is worth the wait based on what is out there so far but I don't think I can wait another 2 weeks or month based on unforeseen issues. It seems that only 3-4 sets go out per week. Sorry for the rant, just getting very anxious. I really want to drive with that exhaust and not just sit on YouTube looking at it lol.

I just ordered my catback today. Can't go full headerback or headers yet due to CARB and CHP, but soon...soon.

Mo's estimate was no later than 3 weeks out, but this is the nicest exhaust on the market imo. Well worth the wait.

Haha, I got the 2" Perrin stubby. And yes, went with tip A on this one.

Looks great other than the bolts on that band clamp...any way to rotate that up so the bolts aren't hanging down?

Thanks guys! Yes, you can rotate the band clamps. I was readjusting my exhaust today to perfect the positioning and wasn't finished twisting them to hide the bolts when i took the pics.
