took this with the cell phone....much better pics to come (and yes, my trunk is open in the pic). There is still 10% of me saying dont install the exhaust, it doesnt look right. I am trying to drink that side of me into a coma.

It looks good, Like i said it looks like its out of place for 1 reason, you're not used to the polished cans it's an optical illusion, see in this pic i took it looks totally out of place.



But thats because of the way the light is reflected off the outside of the cans making it look like one side is has a bigger gap. If you zoom in enough You'll see that on the other side where you think there is no gap that there actually is, it's just shadow.

its not so much the symmetry, but just the size and chrome. I am concerned they mufflers look too big and shiny for the car. I dont want eyes to go instantly to the mufflers.
