agreed,

i would say headlights just for safety but a muscle car needs to sound like a muscle car. $100 for a 4" exhaust is a good deal though, is that what your getting it for?

i would get the exhaust when you get your headers done so you can have that all finished up at the same time. then look around for a cheap drivers side headlight to clean up and install.

I'd definatly get the exhaust. I'm running a custom 4" setup and it is by far the best exhaust I've ever ran. I paid a few greenbacks for it too, 100 is nothing.
