forgive me if im wrong (and im sure someone might step up to the plate and do it for you) but isnt the point of this website to SHARE information because were all brethren to help each other. so your asking people to vouch for you (someone most people have never met and put their namesake on the line in cause something goes bad) for your $750 coil-overs because you supplied people with some free info? thats like me trying to charge people labor for the free DIY's i have posted.

just my $0.02 though

The classified regulations don't have anything to do with how helpful any of your posts may have been. And for someone to vouch they should either know you personally or have purchased something from you before.

Yeah, I get how this stuff works, I just think its ridiculous that I have to go out and meet someone from the forums in order for someone to vouch for me in order to sell something thats over $500?? Im not on here to screw someone over, and since we're all "brethren" I was just asking if someone could help me out. Sorry if I offended you, I just think these regulations are a bit ridiculous

I don't think the regulations are ridiculous. They're set in place to protect the buyers in this forum. It's not a 100% protection but it's better than nothing.

anyway,
installed the pipes yesterday and found them to sound quiet enough for my wife to enjoy.
I thought they sounded great at start up and are pretty quiet. There is now a slight exhaust note in the cabin when accelerating. There's one thing I don't care for and that's all the bling that now shows in the lower rear end. The mufflers are about the same size as the stockers and highly polished. I told her if she didn't like that "tuner" look I'd paint the mufflers black if she wanted.She said she'd report back this week on how they perform for her and her car.

That doesn't look anything like my exhaust.

There is only one style for the Fujitsubo model I got.....as far as I know anyways.
