Tinted car and installed exhaust!! (PICS)

So I finally put my exhaust on. It's a Ractive muffler, and I went with 2" custom piping from where the resonator connected. I had them cut the resonator off. The sound is a nice, deep bass, without any ricey rattles or tinny sounds @ high RPMs. The key it to go with 2" piping instead of 2.25" if you don't want that raspy whine. I also had 15% tint put on my car yesterday. Looks much better. I took the rear deck out so they could tint over the brake light, and had them put a vinyl stricer across the top of the back windshield. Anway, here are the pics:

Kate Sessions is a totally sweet park to smoke bong loads at. Great view, too many old people painting the vista at any 1 point in time though.

BTW, i wouldnt give ARD your real address if I were you. They have a tendency to "collect" their products from customers after a while.

HondaGuru- I hear you on the first comment- [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] It's the perfect lunch time escape for me. As for ARD, I have nothing they would want.

not ARD the store it self, but the tools who work there. Just a warning. I hope you park inside at night.

Yeah that is a really nice decked out HX the 15% tint is nice do they really care about tint that much down there since they don't allow any tint on the front window?

I have 6% limo all around and I had the California Highway Patrol staring me down when I was there hehe
