I'm stuck at a 3 way tie for what I want to purchase for my Z.

AAM Short tails:

Pros:
They look good, and seem to fit good and sound great.

Cons:
I fear they may be too loud for my area in regards of police and my living accommodations. I usually leave for work around 6:00am and I don't think my neighbors would enjoy the noise, nor do I want to get complaints from my landlord about it.

Beluga Catback

Pros:
Fitment and sound and build quality look good. Roughly the same price as the short tails, but for a catback instead of an axleback.

Cons:

Slightly less volume when compared to the AAM's?

Beluga Axleback

Pros:
Build and sound quality look good. Cheapest of all options.

Cons:
Fitment seems off. From the photos and video's I've seen when placed on a non nismo Z, they stick out instead of being flush with the bumper.

I'd love to hear anyone's experiences with any of these. I'd love to go with the AAM Short tails but the sheer volume has me a little worried.

Thanks!
