Wow, that's a huge difference!
I had to revisit page 1 for a comparison.

Much more aggresive, looks like a canyon carver.
Your Hooker Y pipe is gonna hate you... probably turn into a cutout or open headers with the right hit or scrapes.
The rear looks like it could come down a little more to match the front and get rid of the rake. Did you already do the hose mod for that extra 3/4"?

Anyway... this is nice. Everyone says lower it and... page 2 It's lowered, Almost like you where expecting it...
now, how bout LT1 Tailights, Whistler mod and Berger?
