It is messed up, just got a borla catback that should be on in a few days, tips will sit flush with the rear bumper. I had a SLP LM with XR1 and it was a nightmare to adjust and it sat way to low. ****** got hooked on a curb loading onto the dyno one day and ever since the left tip sat out about 4 inches!!

Nice ride. As said before the clean look of Black and Chrome is a great combination. Obviously I agree...

Then we could make some vids As for the tips, right now I have a SLP LM with a Borla XR1. The other day they were loading my car on the dyno when the XR1 cliped the curb and totally fucked up my exhaust. I just purchased a Borla catback with the quad intercooler tips that is gonna look and sound killer. I think Im gonna do a cut out too for the days I wanna be stupid loud.

Lookin' good

Is it your daily driver? I'm guessing no because a good sized speed bump would probably scrape the hell out of it
