Are we talking about the same thing? Look about 4 inches above the pipe outlet on the rear fascia, it looks like paint bubbling.

Thought you were talking about the welds on the pipes. They look like shit.


Those bubbles are huge, must be a reflection or something.

damn this sounds good. I am in law school and broke when it comes to mods, especially 1,000 for an exhaust. I might have to steal that idea. Any more details on the install or part # would be cool. I would appreciate it. Thanks and again, sounds sweet.

lol at the 3rd pipe, cut outs wouldn't really work for an n/a Z, I gave it serious thought but the lack of backpressure killed the idea. I can't justify making all that much noise while LOSING power, brings forth the ricer mentality.

Just borrow a drill and a 3/4 inch drill bit.

Drill & Paint:

Not sure I understand the purpose of painting this. Wasn't the pipe black to begin with? So what's the point of spray painting black paint onto a black pipe? Does drilling that little glory hole change the color somehow?
