Actually, those are just the 3” galvanized pipes run out under the axles. It is custom, and I have them bolted to a flange off the Sweet Thunder mufflers so I can remove them if I need to lower the differential. The rest of the system is the TSP dual exhaust system. From the back the look like rolled tips… from the side… ugh.

Yep, 315's... and, yes, I had to bang and cut the **** out of the inner wheel wells to get them to fit! Actually... I had my buddy do it because I couldn't cut and beat the **** out of my own car, it felt wrong.

Yes they do. I have the same exact car except in NBM. I specifically bought the Formula and added the WS6 hood. I like the look and it is also less common to see cruising around. I do think they should have put "Formula" instead of "Firebird" between the lights. If you're going to designate the model on the TA why not on the Formula?

about 1.5"
i have the G2 super springs. i only scrap on this entrance way (large/wide speed bump!) into my friends housing development and i have to be cautious in the gas station parking lots that have the under ground tank fill holes that stick up out of the cement.
other than that, no big deal.

i'm right there w/ you brotha! love the look of formulas dressed up like ws6's! the tail panel would have been cool to read formula, but oh well, they are all "firebirds" anyway. i am not ashamed... i still wax the heck out the tail panel to keep it from fading!

I guess I'm the only one who thinks the Pontiac Arrowhead looks a bit out of place, even though it is red and matches with your theme.

The rest of the car looks great, and those tips should compliment the rear very nicely.
