I hate saying this because I'm not a fan of exhausts like this, but...

It looks pretty sick!

Can't wait to get mine. Hopefully it'll get here next week.

Wonder why they put two hangers on it? Stock mounting just has one rubber mount thing. Guess I'll see when I install mine.

just installed mine yesterday...and i love it! hehe...nice and mellow...just like the sound clip posted in the other thread...the drone is not even noticeable while driving...

...i really like how it's angled...and the tip is probably (estimating) an inch out of the bumper..i'll snap pics tomorrow after work :D

...as far as the extra hanger...it comes with another hanger you have install on the rail...you'll know what i mean when you get yours...only draw back is the instructions are for any general exhaust installs ...no pics to guide u at all

Damn photobucket is either down or both my laptop and PC are screwed up. Can't see any pics hosted by photobucket or even get to the main photobucket page.

Ah well hopefully it'll be working later, I can't wait to see the pics. My exhaust won't get here for at least another week.

if its anything like the TRD exhaust its gunna smell like popcorn for the next hundred miles or so as it burns of sealants and and residue from the chroming/polishing process...

sounds good! and mods beside the axleback? your profile info seemed a bit out-dated..

I like the looks but for that price it should be all stainless steel.
