Stock cats. No fitment issues except the exits don't quite fit in the bumper cut outs perfectly. Doesn't bother me though. Everyone who's heard the exhaust loves it.

No vids. Here are some pics. I covered the rear in black vinyl so some of the pics of the exhaust are hard to see.

Just wondering if you received it yet and have installed it. If so what are your thoughts?

Just installed yesterday. The sound is awesome. The fitment wasn't pefect had to work around the rear sway bar (just slight bending and angling to fit) and the driver side tip was slightly off and touching the bumper. Other than fitment I give the exhaust 10/10 on sound and price. With fitment issues 9/10.

Awesome, when I get my bonus from my job I'll be swapping out this exhaust but putting an resonated Magnaflow X-pipe to replace the H-pipe and resonators and swapping out my Megan TP's for some ART pipes.

Sounds like a good setup. I to will be getting the ART pipes soon. The Megans had a little to much rasp for my taste.

It does drone when your on the throttle. As far as rasp it's not terrible cuz it's like a deep rasp and not that high pitch rasp. This is only at WOT. The exhaust has a deep rumble at like 2k it sounds sweet.

I did a search on ebay for "g35 exhaust." It was about midway down the results page. It has "cxlightning" in the top left corner of the picture. $200+$98 shipping. I love mine.
