Fuel Economy?
I wonder did the custom exhaust effect the fuel economy of the car at all? I would think that you would lose MPG's but ive been wrong before.

..
wow...that's a lot of stuff for a ls430.... an already classic beauty... so far though tasteful.. like the idea of vinyl... wondering how time and wear will change its apprearance.... would consider better wheels though...
