thanks for the replies

cmarshack,
i really like how your exhaust turned out i think i just want round tips instead of oval tips. How long did it take them to do your exhaust? also how does it sound? is it loud enough for a 16 year old?

Thanks! I think that the round will look great!

They had the car for the whole day. The entire exhaust from the cat back is new, so they took the better part of a day to get it done.

It sounds great! In hind sight I may have had them put resonators to bring the volume down a little, but my wife no longer complains about the volume...so it's not too loud. I think a 16 year old would be very happy every time he got on the gas, it definately lets people know it's not stock.

Since no one mentioned it, the upper right

Quads are for the the sports car/coupe/sedan.

I don't like the other one where they flare to the side, but heard they're good when you're towing a boat, etc....good for keeping the exhaust away though.

i think the quads would look nice if the car was a little faster (maybe the supercharger). I havent decided yet which theme i want to go with on the GX. the quads look pretty good on the mercedes ML brabus:

The upper right look good and balance.
I am thinking about a fake exhaust pipe on the left side just for the look
