Dr. Gas is a good one, I have one in the garage. I had a Heddman X-pipe on my 02 Z, and it looked just as good.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...979294899&rd=1- For some reason this auction shows a pic for the x-pipe, then when you open the auction, it says the auction is for a 80 series flowmaster?
