RadioShack has some of the best CBs on the market in my opinion.

Hey, hows it been? Well my cars changed quite a bit and still have more in the works. Take a look. Anyways if your up for it maybe we could meet up sometime during the day. As for the repairs, that sucks when a mechanic doesnt fix it right. I have done about 95% of all the work on my car myself to eliminate that prob.

What looks funny is that it's sticking too far out and isn't more flush with the bumper. It also is not flat and was put in at an angle. Also the way the hangers were put into place are wrong. They should be parallel with the length of the muffler. Not across the logo. Also the further it sticks out the more it will scrape if you get on a incline and even though I still havent lowered my car I still scrape just a little bit sometimes. So it will likly be pretty bad on yours I would think. And how it looks is that either you got a newby to do it or someone who just wanted to get it done quickly because you should have had at least a 1 ft piece of pipe made new to fit the exuahst on to have to smoothest flow of exhuast and have it sit right. The strut bar I market them here in the US for a company outside the US. The are many other performance parts they offer other than this piece I have. I will soon be getting their lowering springs. I have the pictures to show you I just need an email to send them to since I really dont think it's worth putting more pictures of my muffler on my page. If you want to see exactly send me a message at suzukigtafan@yahoo.com and I can give you the pics.
