Is this more of an aesthetic than functional mod?

I also installed the finger print free trunk strap and it works really well. It might be the most useful mod I've done to the car (beside tires)

Great idea. You installed it and say it works - good enough for me. I'm thinking of rigging something with a leather guitar headstock strap. If others get their fingers chopped off trying to shut the trunk there will still be less fingerprints!

It functionally keeps my aesthetics nice. It allows me to close the trunk without having to grab the spoiler or paint.

Today I scored this brand-new-in-the-box $1100 Corsa exhaust (with black tips) for $636 shipped.

Actually I scored it last weekend. The box arrived today. It's like Christmas in April.

Thanks. The guy listed it on Ebay by the model number, but nowhere in the listing did he indicate what car it was for. I have been searching periodically for that number and was probably the only twin driver who found it. I clicked the "Best Offer" button and made what I thought was a ridiculously low offer of $600, but he came back with a $636 counteroffer to cover his shipping cost. I dropped what I was doing and accepted.

It'll be a few weeks before I have a chance to install it, damn it.

Which model number and seller?

Installed a used K&N Typhoon intake that I bought off of a member here. I really like how it's changed the induction sound, which is why I bought it.
