I got a killer deal on a set of used SLP headers because they had scrapes on the bottom of them. The guy sold them due to clearance issues. I'm at stock ride height and I plan on welding some protective plates to the bottom of them. I would've gone with a different brand but I got the SLP LTs and an ORY for $250 shipped!!!

My brother has SLP's on his lowered car and it shoots sparks out all the time from scraping them. Gona have to make some welds sooner or later to cover up the holes that will eventually appear. I do think they flow decently enough though, the car makes good power for the mods it has.
