Chose a $10 mod. I bought two cans of red plasti dip to make sure I had enough.

Removed


In the house after 6 coats. Probably overkill, but Still came out great.


In the car

As someone who has been learning a DSLR since May of last year and still honing his skills, this most definitely does NOT suck. Keep it up! Just be a bit more mindful of your horizon. I have that same issue.

"Cheaped-out" and purchased the same tips. Easy install and they look a whale of a lot better than the stockers at less than half the price of others I was considering.

As to the mounting bracket rust issue, shielding other car parts and then spraying with high-temp Rustoleum should forestall the problem for as long as I own the car in central Texas.

Can you take multiple pics of it on the car? Thanks! I live in socal. Not really worried about the rusting issue. Don't want a new exhaust but want a new tips. The stock tips look like POS to be honest.

I took her for a nice spin since i'm finally past the break in engine period. She sings in the higher revs! I already know some mods I want to do, I can feel the shifter breaking in but I still find it clunky :/

Not bright at all, in all honesty when I went to the store this morning after putting the pieces back in, I couldn't even tell they were there. I mean if I looked at them yeah, but just driving, it's as if it's always been there.

Nice, the shift knob was throwing me off.

Yeah, the shift knob is the Robust Red from Anarchy Motive, that's a bit darker than the plasti dip. But the interior pieces are shiny which I think helps for it not being distracting.

I was thinking Cardinal Sin might look wonderful with that set up.

I agree it probably would be, but one knob is good enough in my collection
