im with you on that tip not my fav sticks out a bit far

Yeah I should be able to adjust one of the hangers and pull it up. If not I'll take it back. Gonna paint the exhaust black too. Or get some chrome wheels. xD

I also seemed to have developed some bumpsteer. I dread going over bumps, the car is all over the place. Hopefully the SN-95 parts will cure it.

How close is it to the gas tank fill tube? Do you think you could get a pic of that for me?

Here you go... no where near it

Here's the rest of the system.

I like your idea with painting the exhaust. However it seems like it's really close to the outside edge of the car. Was that intentional?

Thanks.

Most 3-inch pipes seem to be designed to go around the tank more so than their smaller counterparts. So to answer your question, it wasn't intentional on my part. It also prolly looks exaggerated because of the bigger pipe.

Mine doesnt touch the cross brace thats near the lers, hangs almost perfectly level, and perfectly straight. The tailpipe i ran didnt fit for shiznit, but the tip came out straight.

I dont know if its the pics, or just me being a pessimist, but it seems like i got it to fit better.

The pipe doesn't touch the cross-brace. I kinda looks like it in the pic I guess. As for the tailpipe, he put a 10* bend in so it wouldn't run into the bumper. He obviously over bent it, which is my only complaint. But everything else is tucked in nice and neat. My only complaint from Stinger is that the DP hangs too low. If I had to do it all over again I would of had them cut the DP and tuck it in some more.

Also keep in mind that the rear of the car is on jackstands and the pic was taken at an angle as well.

Here's a couple quick pics of the newly painted wheels. I had to finish this before the weekend because I am going to lose some borrowed tools.

I guess it was just the pics then.

The wheels look sweet. The thing i definatly dont miss with my black snowflakes is that the tires never look as black or as clean as the wheels themselves. I had to tireshine the hell out of them to keep them looking remotely as nice as the wheels

Should not have purchased this, but I couldn't help myself. I need help! This is probably the cleanest T-3 I have ever seen in person.
