Cool

No. They look ****ing retarded and no part of the exhaust system from the cat converter to the muffler tip is restrictive.

Be careful the bumper cover doesn't melt from the exhaust heat. I see Hondas and other rice rockets with their attached coffee can tips suffering from blistered rear bumpers.

The muffler does look good.
