Nice, are you replacing worn out broken things or switching interior colors?

Default Shine Kit Update.

So 2 weeks ago my bumper was a victim to AAA flatbed Service.
2 weeks later (takes shine auto couture 2wks to make bumper)
The quality was crap, half fasted lotta extra body work needed to make perfect...

Spoke to ken which is the "owner" he will replace my bumper so I hafta wait two more weeks until I get the bumper in proper QC condition.

For now i get to look much better than before.

















If anyone is interested in repairing the broken one (knows how to repair fiberglass) you can take it for 60$ remember retail is 450+120 shipped from shine auto couture.

Maybe someone is crafty? use as a basher drift kit? Ziptie jdm yo?
If no one is interested I might keep it and try to Learn how to do it myself. LMK it's in the Los Angeles, Ca Area!

If you do the resonator delete and run straight pipes from the rear cats back to the mufflers it will not be quiet by any means!

That's how mine is set up and it sounds amazing!

Very nice! So you just removed the cat and is true dual now? Any inspection issues not having a rear cat? Any rasp?

Yes, it's true dual and I still have all of the cats, just no resonators. Passed CA smog fine. No rattles by any means and it sounds mean! Wish I could load a video but don't have a gmail account for YouTube.

Test fit the supercharger and electric fans. I got everything lined up and set for final install/wiring. Hope to have it running real soon.
