Default CME test fit

Getting closer..I just need to get the valence painted and get the pipes to fit a little better.

Yup this is what's replacing it. And They will come down a bit as soon as I heat up the inlet to the muffler so it can go over the I-pipe. Right now it's sort of just hanging there on the hangers. The pipe will bring it down a bit though, hopefully

I have that valance you have with SLP quad tips. I love the CME no matter if you have dual or quad tips. CME just kicks butt.

Looks good, but did you really put the valance on before getting it painted?

Its much easier for the paint shop to do a better paint job on something like that when its off the car rather than on, unless your paint is faded and they need to blend it.

Looks killer though, I wish my business would be busy again so I could put that expensive **** on my SS !

I clearly read and saw that he is just test fitting them on... do you not see the tape holding up the valance?

Yeah it's just taped on..lol and for some reason people who saw it like that told me I should put it on red because "it looks really cool". hahah no way it looks ricey and cheap. And I had been saving for CME which all in all after paint maybe might cost about 1000 but I came across a wrecked red SS driving down the road with OEM CME and offered him $150 with the valence and he accepted.

Lol I was really considering selling the whole set up..but I always wanted it so bad and I would end up rebuying later so I figured why not just keep it.
