Car is coming together

Just got the exhaust/test pipes on yesterday. I wish the guy I bought it from disclosed some of the bull**** involved with the exhaust. It's not fitting 100% but it's on and looks ok. I can't wait to go to the Aug 19th meet and meet everyone finally. If you see a debadged/grille IP Coupe on black wheels w/ exhaust say Hi!

Also, does anyone know of a shop that won't charge 400 damn dollars to put springs on? I find it hard to believe it costs that much

It's gonna be years before that system can be implemented. Think about it. Everyone has to get their car tested but there are only a few places that can currently test it. Put the test pipes on and enjoy!

$400 is probably for 4 hours of labor which is about how long it takes if you know what you're doing. find a friend to help you.

i believe emissions is trying to come back in 2009.
