Did you just polish the headlights or did you replace them? They look foggy in the first set of pics.

it'd be even funnier if it was a car used to transport cocaineor heroine and got picked up before delivery. If i where you i'd search that car and make sure its clean. Haven't you people seen border wars dope gets left in vehicles that dope is found in.

from what i can tell it has an slp intake setup on it, lid/duct and all that. has some exhaust work as well. still cant figure out how to get it to pass smog. i think ima just have to get a new cat since the new sensor didnt stop the problem.

Do you have a check engine light on where the PCM is throwing a code?

I've seen stock replacement cats go from between $80-$200 in the classifieds. If you buy new OEM replacement cats they'll charge you an arm and a leg.

Part Number: CAT612106LB
Part Number: CAT612107LB
These are catco catalytic converters by walker. They are 50 state legal and should be reasonably priced.

Magnaflow also has them but they are expensive.
