Word of warning on the endlinks. I bought a set of fronts and sold them after 5 months. I couldn't get them to quit popping and cracking even though I adjusted them multiple times. Spoke to Kuah at the shop, it's here in Austin and he had no answer for me on how to stop the noise except "keep adjusting them, they shouldn't make noise". I'm now looking at another set of stockers or maybe the Whitelines.

Both my windows do this, only one you can hear while driving. And since a few people say they have the same issue, I am guessing this is a pretty common issue.
I dont know if you can see but where the tape is at, there is a seal/gasket/w/e running around the small window. It appears that the whole part from the top corner to the bottom corner appears to leak air on both windows.
This part is pretty damn easy to just peal back when I get back home on sunday Ill put up a quick DIY. Some simple hotglue should fix this easy.
I tried looking at inifinit parts to see if I could find the part, but could not locate it. But seeing as so many people probably have this issue, its only some time until it happens again with the replacement part.
You guys can test if this is the same issue as you are having my simply putting some tape to press on this trim piece. Probably going to need a bit more then what I put on, but just what I put up knocked down the wind noise a lot.

Depends on the shop ultimately but i would say no higher than $350. When i did my exhaust i was quoted 350 including muffler and now pipe up to the mid pipe. If i chose to do a true dual exhaust it was $750.

Neil and I are shaking our heads right now. Just buy the damn megan and quit trying to save a few pennies. The Megan will sound 8000X better.

For the love of god are you really trying to cheap out on the MEGAN??? That exhaust is like $350 which is like the same you'd pay at an exhaust shop.

No I am not really trying to cheap out on the megan. If I could save a little money, while also creating potentially something that no one else has would I do it, Yes. Sorry if me wanting to ask a "random" little question about what an exhaust shop might charge to bend some piping is against your idea of not wanting to spend money on something you don't know how it sounds. And you don't know the megan will sound 8000k better Janik, I'm just saying.
I will probably end up going the MEGAN route, but I also think it would be cool to be able to say, oh I designed/put together the exhaust, not oh it's just MEGAN racing.
But anyways, if it would cost 350 with the muffler at a shop I might look into it a little more seriously.
It would be nice to just bolt on some exhaust, but I am just researching options here.
