You can use Flickr, photobucket, imgur, etc from your phone to upload pics and then you just link here the URL to those

Did you weigh it on a scale? When I took the exhaust off I put it on an actual scale it was 69-71lbs.. stock Nismo exhaust was around 64lbs I believe.. One reason why I sold it and bought a Litespeed CBE. Only 38lbs

Yeah, trust me, I weigh every part I put on or take off. FYI, if you ever remove the 2 resonators on your new Ark cbe, they weigh 11lbs total, lol.
