Thanks for everyone's responses. I know its not everyone's cup of tea, but I think the G35 sedan could use a more aggressive exhaust. Subjectively, I think its one of the better looking kits out there, not to mention its a proven easy 5hp gain. The camera angles were used to accentuate the exhaust for HKS' website. When you are looking at the car from a normal standing height, it really does not look as bad, plus I'm sure after I lower the car, it wont stick out as much.

Good advice, I've bent numerous exhaust tips on my other cars because of this!

I had the HiPower on my 05 tC. It came out at an angle (similar to Supra) and it looked pretty clean. IMO, they look like Rocket boosters on the G35 (not a good look). Personally, i prefer the cleaner look of the Stillen Cat-Back. All in personal taste i guess... I would like to hear it though.
