HOLLY $H!T !!!! how did you manage that one? sweet buy...

It was the only one that they had left, from last year. I have been looking around for this particular grill or something like it for a few weeks and just happened to stop by to buy a different one because no one carried the one I wanted any more. They were having a big clearance sale outside on the sidewalk in front of the store and there it was on a cart, thought it was sold. Wife sat on it while I found a saleman to check and see if it was sold, he came over, scanned it and marked it down from $75 to $60 and asked if that was low enough for us to take, lol, SOLD, I would've paid full price for it. Has a crank on the front to raise and lower the charcoal, stainless, caster wheels that lock, real sweet.

NICE!!! lucky score.

personally, I went with Strup, but weapon-r makes a Great header as well.
don't know who has the best price right now. but I can't reccommend a cheap ebay header. I've read too many bad reports.

We have the DC on ours. Same design as most but its already ceramic coated to keep the heat down since it you will not be able to retain your factory heat-shield. For checking for the best price i would spend some time in the sponsored sales section and do some pm'n to the various vendors to get the best price or hit google shopping with the part number, usually gives you a good idea of prices as well!

As far as exhaust any axle-back will do, there are few cat-back systems for the xB so you might have to look a bit. I always watch the classifieds here though, in fact there is a local guy selling one right now! Seems like a good price for a cat-back too!

Ok after ordering my Samco hoses on March yes March 12th........they finally arrived today..........they almost did not make it as they sent the wrong address to UPS,and we did not notice it till today around noon,but luckily we called UPS and they called back and had driver deliver them today to us..........

I do not know if it was Samco,or the retailer that I went through or a combo of both that made it take so long........but I have to say they were worth the wait.........top quality hoses and fit perfectly,I only got the top one on so far as it is pouring rain and I am a sissy.......lol
