-What brand would you prefer?

Like I said I am a car noob . Sorry if my questions arnt clear.

Thank You!
Coupe midpipe is a great place to start.
It's cheap
Bolt-on, very DIYable
and makes the car sound deeper without too much fuss.
Also, you could always upgrade other parts of the exhaust later.


BTW, RLQT is BAAAAACK, w00000000000T!!

Megan muffler is like 100 bucks, CMP is 100 bucks and have it welded is like 60 bucks, he's saving like $140.00

yeah but that costs as much as some catbacks do...especially if you add the cost of the coupe mid pipe to it

I would just get a Coupe midpipe first and see if you like the sound. If it's not deep enough, buy a muffler or axle back.

What year is your car?

^ Im thinking the same thing. I can trade my OEM full shaved for a reg OEM with spoiler and some cash.

I like that new Strafe one but I'm not sure I'm comfortable buying from them.

looks like they just painted the lower sills and flared the fender lips above the wheels.

Too much $ and is not functional like the oem spoiler. Fitment is questionable too, I don't like how the reverse lights don't line up with the tails

Then stick with the lip. The spoiler looks like an ironing board.

I like the OEM spoiler, it was high on my list of pre-requisites when I bought the car. That said, I do like the M3 style spoiler, have you looked into that?

And why are you thinking of ditching the N1 lip, just curious?
